Recording speech articulation in dialogue: Evaluating a synchronized double electromagnetic articulography setup
An ultrasound study of lingual coarticulation in /sV/ syllables produced by adults and typically developing children
According to the Degree of Articulatory Constraint model of lingual coarticulation, the consonant /s/ has some scope for tongue adaptation to neighbouring vowels, since the tongue dorsum is not directly involved in constriction formation for this consonant. The present study aimed to establish whether the tongue shape for /s/ in consonant-vowel syllables was influenced by the nature of the following vowel, in Scottish-English-speaking children an…

Categorical and gradient properties of assimilation in alveolar to velar sequences: Evidence from EPG and EMA data
Visual feedback therapy using electropalatography (EPG) for articulation disorders associated with cleft palate
This study investigates the effects of visual feedback therapy using electropalatography (EPG) on abnormal /t/ and /s/ tongue–palate contact patterns in children and young adults with articulation disorders associated with repaired cleft palate. Twelve subjects were randomly assigned to one of two treatment regimes. Subjects in regime 1 received four sessions of individual therapy using EPG for visual feedback ('EPG therapy') followed by four ses…

Alveolar to velar coarticulation in fast and careful speech: Some preliminary observations
This paper is concerned with the articulatory details of a connected speech process - the assimilation of a word-final alveolar nasal to a following velar plosive, under conditions of varied speech rate
A Comparative Investigation of Coarticulation in Fricatives: Electropalatographic, Electromagnetic, and Acoustic Data
The principal aim of this investigation was to compare coarticulatory effects at different levels of the speech production system, in order to gain insight into the relations between the different levels. To this end, the relative magnitudes of carryover and anticipatory coarticulation with adjacent vowels were measured at the midpoints of the two lingual fricatives /s/ and /∫/ in two speakers each of English, French, and German. Linguopalatal co…
Temporal and Spatial Aspects of Lingual Coarticulation in /kl/ Sequences: A Cross-Linguistic Investigation
Temporal and spatial aspects of lingual coarticulation in /kl/ clusters in intervocalic position (VklV) were investigated in six European languages: Catalan, English, French, German, Italian, and Swedish. Three speakers of each language repeated a set of real words and nonsense items five times. Temporal overlap of /k/ and /l/ gestures, as represented by a numerical “overlap index”, was interpreted as tongue-tip/tongue-body coarticulation, and wa…
Accor: Instrumentation and Database for the Cross-Language Study of Coarticulation
An unavoidable problem in speech technology, particularly in the development of robust automatic speech recognition systems, is the extreme variability in the acoustic attributes of segments. Segments are highly sensitive to context and bear little resemblance to their intrinsic characteristics manifested when they are uttered in isolation. However, the problem can become tractable if we model the linguistic and physiological aspects of coarticul…

Articulatory and perceptual factors in /l/ vocalisations in English
In several dialects of English notably in the southern part of Britain (but excluding Wales), a velarised or "dark" allophone of /l/ occurs syllable-finally, and post-vocalically in syllable-final consonant clusters (Wells 1982; Gimson 1980). A variant of this velarised [l], typically associated with Cockney, but increasingly admitted as a feature of South-Eastern Urban English, is a "vowelised" or vocalised form realised as a non-syllabic back v…
