Human talkers often address listeners with language-comprehension challenges, such as hard-of-hearing or non-native adults, by globally slowing down their speech. However, it remai…
You Sound a Little Tense: L2 Tailored Clear TTS Using Durational Vowel Properties
Paige Tuttösí, H. Henny Yeung, Yue Wang +2
We present the first text-to-speech (TTS) system tailored to second language (L2) speakers. We use duration differences between American English tense (longer) and lax (shorter) vo…
Mmm whatcha say? Uncovering distal and proximal context effects in first and second-language word perception using psychophysical reverse correlation
Paige Tuttösí, H. Henny Yeung, Yue Wang +4
Acoustic context effects, where surrounding changes in pitch, rate or timbre influence the perception of a sound, are well documented in speech perception, but how they interact wi…
ANGUS: Real-time manipulation of vocal roughness for emotional speech transformations

Vocal arousal, the non-linear acoustic features taken on by human and animal vocalizations when highly aroused, has an important communicative function because it signals aversive…

Mathieu Lagrange, Grégoire Lafay, Boris Defreville +1
The "bag-of-frames" approach (BOF), which encodes audio signals as the long-term statistical distribution of short-term spectral features, is commonly regarded as an effective and…
