Word meaning co-determines vowel-inherent spectral change. A corpus-based investigation of conversational Mandarin
Xiaoyun Jin, Mirjam Ernestus, R. Harald Baayen
This study investigates vowel-inherent spectral change (VISC) in spontaneous conversational Mandarin. Using the generalized additive model and word embeddings from distributional s…
Using embeddings to predict spoken word duration and pitch in Mandarin monosyllabic words
Xiaoyun Jin, Mirjam Ernestus, R. Harald Baayen
Time-normalized f0 contours of Mandarin words in conversational speech have been shown to be predictable in part from their contextualized embeddings (CEs). The present study inves…
A new kid on the block: Distributional semantics predicts the word-specific tone signatures of monosyllabic words in conversational Taiwan Mandarin
Xiaoyun Jin, Mirjam Ernestus, R. Harald Baayen
We present a corpus-based investigation of how the pitch contours of monosyllabic words are realized in spontaneous conversational Mandarin, focusing on the effects of words' meani…
A corpus-based investigation of pitch contours of monosyllabic words in conversational Taiwan Mandarin
Xiaoyun Jin, Mirjam Ernestus, R. Harald Baayen
In Mandarin, the tonal contours of monosyllabic words produced in isolation or in careful speech are characterized by four lexical tones: a high-level tone (T1), a rising tone (T2)…
