Abstract

Speech communication (SC) is a quintessentially human behavior. Scholars in the SC Technical Committee conduct research on three broad areas: the production of speech, the perception of speech, and the machine processing of speech. We study people across the globe and across the entire lifespan. Our work includes people with and without speech, language, and hearing impairments. This brief talk will highlight three recent projects by SC TC members that illustrate the breadth of our work. We will review research on how speech style affects memory for speech, how ultrasound can be used to measure tongue movement during speech, and how speech synthesis can be used to estimate articulatory movements from acoustic records of speech. We hope that this presentation will encourage students and new members from our society's many technical committees to learn more about how our work in the SC TC complements research and scholarship in many different fields of acoustics.Speech communication (SC) is a quintessentially human behavior.
