Speech event in sociolinguistics and the study of discourse, a term describing a communicative exchange made meaningful by culturally specific structures of participants, genres, codes and other elements. Usage in a language is organized through the higher-level patterning of speech events. Examples of highly structured speech events are debates and interviews. Much less structured are conversations. Speech perception in phonetics and psycholinguistics, a term for the process whereby a listener extracts a sequence of discrete phonetic and linguistic units from the continuous acoustic signal of speech. The term also applies to the study of the neuropsychological mechanisms governing this ability. speech processing see speech speech production In phonetics and psycholinguistics , a term for the activity of the respiratory, phonatory and articulatory systems during speech , along with the associated neural programming required for their co-ordination and use. A contrast is usually drawn with the receptive aspects of spoken communication, such as speech perception and recognition. See chain (1). Speech recognition in phonetics and computational linguistics, the recognition of human speech through computer analysis; also called automatic speech recognition (ASR). The term should not be confused with speaker recognition, where the aim is to identify the person speaking rather than what is being said. The task involves the matching of an input acoustic signal with a vocabulary (of sounds, syllables, words, etc.) stored in the computer’s memory. A standard technique for matching individual words is to use stored waveforms (or features/ parameters of waveforms) against which an input signal is matched (‘template matching’). The computer requires a period of training, in which it receives examples of spoken words provided by (single or multiple) speakers, and averages these to derive a canonical waveform. The variable rate of speech inputs needs to be taken into account, most often using the technique of ‘dynamic time warping’, in which segments in the input signal are aligned with those in the template. The more challenging aim of ASR is to handle continuous speech. Here the computer is provided with information about typical patterns of phonetic and phonological segmentation, as well as morphological and syntactic information. More advanced simulations, such as those provided by connectionist models, are also used. Speech science(s) see speech speech stretcher in instrumental phonetics, a device which presents a slowed but undistorted recording of speech. It is helpful in identifying sounds which might otherwise be lost in the speed of normal speech, in studying the transitions between adjacent sounds, and in monitoring such features as intonation. Speech surrogate which replaces the whistle-speech. In linguistics and semiotics, a communication system use of speech. Examples include drum languages and speech synthesis in phonetics and computational linguistics, the process of generating artificial speech signals, using a model of the linguistically important of participants, genres, codes and other elements.
