Projects

For a summary of our current research, you can read our Mid-Term Report, written March 2009. The rest of the Projects page will be updated to give more detail about recent results after the spring 2010 reports are written.

S2S's research is based around 11 interrelated projects, which are grouped into 4 themes:
Theme I: Multi-linguistic and comparative research on fine phonetic detail - Projects 1-4
Theme II: Imperfect knowledge/signal - Projects 5-6
Theme III: Beyond short units of speech - Projects 7-8
Theme IV: Exemplars and abstraction - Projects 9-11

Project 5: Perceptual coherence and the role of FPD in noise

This project aims to use computational techniques to build linguistic structures such as prosodic trees on the basis of ‘perceptual coherence’, that is, the grouping of sound components such as harmonics and formants into larger units. The Sheffield project will examine overlap in conversations. The Cluj project will examine other aspects of the relationship between FPD and auditory perceptual coherence, and test the hypothesis that FPD-derived coherence contributes to speech processing in noise.
