TY - JOUR AU - Caelen, J PY - 2022/12/03 Y2 - 2024/03/28 TI - Speech Segmenting and kinematics JF - Canadian Acoustics JA - Canadian Acoustics VL - 14 IS - 3 bis SE - Proceedings of the Acoustics Week in Canada DO - UR - https://jcaa.caa-aca.ca/index.php/jcaa/article/view/3550 SP - 77-79 AB - <p>Conclusion:</p><p>The above makes it possible to look at segmenting, and subsequently at acoustico-phonetic decoding, from a new and maybe more advantageous angle instead of researching discontinuity, we would resort to the formal instruments of mechanics (or data-analysis) to examine local variations in speech-trajectories that are represented in suitable spaces. Such a representation allows for an ascending description, from acoustics to phonology; while by-passing any a priori (even implicit) phonetic model. At the same time, it seems possible to find a grammar of distortions capable of superposing the several trajectories that correspond to one sequence uttered by several speakers. This kind of results, nevertheless, remains to be confirmed over large speech-corpuses and large numbers of speakers,</p> ER -
