A Temporal Fuzzy-ART Neural Network Architecture as a Model of Phoneme Perception
This paper explores the applicability of Adaptive Resistance Theory- (ART-) type neural networks for finding and encoding linguistic structures, specifically those corresponding to acoustic patterns in natural speech. We build an interpretation of human perceptual response to acoustic pattern in …

Non-linguistic Influences on Infants' Nonnative Phoneme Perception: Exaggerated prosody and Visual Speech Information Aid Discrimination
… into the decline in nonnative phonetic perception have neglected to examine the role of non-linguistic information. Exaggerated prosodic intonation and facial input are prominent in the infants' language-learning environment, and both have been shown to ease the task of speech …

Auditory comprehension: from the voice up to the single word level
… comprehension at different levels: voice versus phoneme perception, as well as single word auditory comprehension in terms of phonemic and semantic content. In the first study, using sounds from different continua of ‘male’-/pæ/ to ‘female’-/tæ/ and ‘male’-/tæ/ to ‘female’-/pæ/, healthy …

Speech perception in children with reading disabilities
… encountered significant difficulties in phonetic perception compared to a normal reading control group (RCs). Second, RDs had a speech perception problem with nonsense syllable identification, despite normal hearing for pure tones. The stark contrast in performance of the two tasks showed that the …

Perception of prosody by cochlear implant recipients
… which speech features support successful perception in noise in NH listeners could provide insight into the difficulty that CI listeners experience in background noise. One set of speech features that has not been thoroughly investigated with regard to its noise immunity is prosody. …
