Re: AUDITORY Digest - 12 Jan 2011 (#2011-10)



Jeff,

Regarding standardized CVs.  The Speech Perception Evaluation and Training System (SPATS) that we have developed over the past ten years or so includes the 109 most common syllable constituents of English (onsets, nuclei, and codas), spoken by young and old, male and female talkers with middle-American accents. SPATS and research using that system are described at length on our website, comdistec.com.  Contact us if you would like to use this system in a research project.

Hi, I was informed of a recent post to this list looking for
Vowel-Consonant-Vowel stimuli.

Lori Holt and I have developed a set of resynthesized natural VCV
tokens with consonants ranging from /b/-/d/-/g/, in four vowel
contexts: /a/, /ae/, /i/, /u/ (i.e., individual stimuli sound like
/aba/, /igi/, /udu/, etc.)

We have used this set of stimuli in audiovisual speech perception
studies, among other things (Ex. Stephens, J.D.W., & Holt, L.L.
(2010). Learning to use an artificial visual cue in speech
identification. JASA 128(4), 2138).

The stimuli and some documentation are available here:
http://www.psy.cmu.edu/~lholt/php/StephensHoltStimuli.php

and here:

http://www.u.arizona.edu/~alotto/ACNS/StimuLibrary.htm

An article describing these stimuli is currently under consideration
at a journal and will hopefully appear some time in 2011.

Any questions, please feel free to contact me: jdstephe@xxxxxxxx

Hope this is helpful.

Cheers,
Beau Stephens

There is the following VCV corpus for work on noise robust ASR,
