production. Based on the current findings, the infusion of an iPad-based SGD into PECS instruction may be effective in increasing initial requesting skills; however, a facilitative effect on increasing speech acquisition cannot necessarily be expected for every subject. Moreover, these investigators st...
Six speech tokens were paired into three speech sound contrast pairs varying in the number and type of discrimination cues and which we hypothesized would differ in discrimination difficulty: Baa/Tea, Boo/Bee and She/See. Baa/Tea differ in vowel identity, consonant voicing, and place of articula...
A plausible alternative explanation would be that the child may have difficulty in motor programming, planning, or execution and therefore simplifies their motor movement pattern by using only two articulatory targets instead of four. A combination of both causes is also possible. In rare cases, ...
Background: Speech-sound disorders (SSD) have been linked to auditory processing difficulties, and auditory processing disorders (APD) have been related to phonological awareness and literacy development. To this date, there has not been a systematic lit
Cross-corpus speech emotion recognition (SER) is a challenging task, and its difficulty lies in the mismatch between the feature distributions of the training (source domain) and testing (target domain) data, leading to the performance degradation when the model deals with new domain data. Previou...
