Abstract
Using the Timit database, we describe experimental results that lead to the concept that sounds made by different individuals and perceived to be the same that can be transformed into each other by a speech scale. The speech scale is empirically determined using only speech data. We show the similarity of the speech scale to the MEL scale of Stevens and Volkmann, which was derived only from hearing experiments. We thus argue that we have experimentally linked speech production and hearing.
