Assuming that linguistic specifications and information planning contribute to different levels of prosodic organization that cumulatively constitute output prosody, quantitative analysis of respective contributions can be derived through normalization procedures that remove levels of interactions involved. The current study attempts to account for how Τ2 prosody departs from the Τ1 norm in the two...
This work reports an ultra-low-power temperature-compensated CMOS-MEMS oscillator based on an uniform temperature design that ensures low temperature gradient of the proposed resonator to attain high frequency stability. The oven heating efficiency greater than 140°C/mW is achieved in this work by a proper thermal isolation design. In addition, the lowest temperature coefficient of frequency (TCf)...
L1 English and two varieties of L1 Mandarin English speech data were extracted from the Taiwan AESOP corpus (Asian English Speech cOrpus Project) for the purpose of investigating differences in the realization of English narrow focus by L1 speakers of North American English, Taiwan Mandarin and Beijing Mandarin. Results show the combined effect of two patterns of L2 focus production: general underdifferentiation...
We propose an improved spoken term detection approach that uses support vector machines trained with lattice context consistency. The basic idea is that the same term usually have similar context, while quite different context usually implies the terms are different. Support vector machine can be trained using query context feature vectors obtained from the lattice to estimate better scores for ranking,...
In this paper, we present an integrated framework for transcribing Mandarin-English code-mixed lectures with improved acoustic and language modeling. The target corpus considered here has almost all utterances in the host language of Mandarin, while many of them are embedded with terms (mostly special terminologies for the course) produced in the guest language of English. For acoustic modeling, we...
