Abstract
The problem of implementing a detector for stop consonants in continuously spoken speech is considered. The problem is posed as one of finding an optimal filter (linear or nonlinear) that operates on a particular appropriately chosen representation, and ideally outputs a 1 when a stop occurs and 0 otherwise. The performance of several variants of a canonical stop detector is discussed and its implications for human and machine speech recognition is considered.
