Средства реализации категории диалогичности в эпистолярном тексте второй половины XVIII века

The aim of the research is to determine the role of means of representing the textual category of dialogue in the private-business epistolary of the 18th century when characterising the communicants of correspondence, particularly Nikita Akinfievich Demidov (1724-1787), a Ural factory owner. The scientific novelty of the paper lies in examining linguistic markers of the category of dialogue peculiar to the business language of the 18th century and to N. A. Demidov as a linguistic personality. As a result of analysing the form of documents sent to higher authorities, it has been determined that the category of dialogue is represented even in the initial block of the letter – in the document requisites “sender” and “recipient”, whereas in letters sent to lower authorities, the requisite “sender” is contained within the requisite “recipient”. In the main part of the analysed documents and letters, the category of dialogue is represented by core markers: interrogative, imperative and negative constructions, references to documents initiating business communication (new speech subjects) presented in the form of indirect speech using the subjective particles де and якобы that indicate the unreliability of the information provided. In the business correspondence sent to lower authorities represented by a collective subject or a specific individual, N. A. Demidov uses both core and peripheral means of expressing the category of dialogue (parenthetical words and phrases, evaluative vocabulary) characteristic of the Russian language of the 18th century.

Speech extraction from vibration signals based on deep learning.

Extracting speech information from vibration response signals is a typical system identification problem, and the traditional method is too sensitive to deviations such as model parameters, noise, boundary conditions, and position. A method was proposed to obtain speech signals by collecting vibration signals of vibroacoustic systems for deep learning training in the work. The vibroacoustic coupling finite element model was first established with the voice signal as the excitation source. The vibration acceleration signals of the vibration response point were used as the training set to extract its spectral characteristics. Training was performed by two types of networks: fully connected, and convolutional. And it is found that the Fully Connected network prediction model has faster Rate of convergence and better quality of extracted speech. The amplitude spectra of the output speech signals (network output) and the phase of the vibration signals were used to convert extracted speech signals back to the time domain during the test set. The simulation results showed that the positions of the vibration response points had little effect on the quality of speech recognition, and good speech extraction quality can be obtained. The noises of the speech signals posed a greater influence on the speech extraction quality than the noises of the vibration signals. Extracted speech quality was poor when both had large noises. This method was robust to the position deviation of vibration responses during training and testing. The smaller the structural flexibility, the better the speech extraction quality. The quality of speech extraction was reduced in a trained system as the mass of node increased in the test set, but with negligible differences. Changes in boundary conditions did not significantly affect extracted speech quality. The speech extraction model proposed in the work has good robustness to position deviations, quality deviations, and boundary conditions.

Combining key pronunciation detection, frontal lip reconstruction, and time-delay for audio-visual consistency judgment

This paper presents a novel approach to audio-visual consistency judgment (AVCJ), in which vowel-like regions exhibiting significant changes in lip shape are used as key pronunciations. Unlike conventional methods that typically apply speech information to the whole utterance and corresponding visual features, the proposed technique involves key pronunciation analysis and frontal lip reconstruction for non-frontal lip frames corresponding to these key pronunciations. This is done to eliminate the influence of variations in video viewing angle on consistency judgment and address the limitations of whole-sentence analysis in a process consisting of four steps. First, key pronunciations are detected in speech utterance. Second, view angle classification is performed on lip frames corresponding to the key pronunciations and then frontal reconstruction is performed by a proposed SL-CycleGAN. Third, deep correlation analysis is applied to the covariance of the deep features obtained from both audio and visual features. Fourth, time-delay and correlation differences are combined to estimate the joint score of each key pronunciation. The results of AVCJ are then acquired by calculating a sentence level score from each joint score. Experimental results from the OuluVS2 bimodal multi-view database showed that the proposed method outperformed several state-of-the-art algorithms, including quadratic mutual information (QMI), space-time canonical correspondence analysis, and multiple variations of SyncNet.

Of words and whistles: Statistical learning operates similarly for identical sounds perceived as speech and non-speech

Statistical learning is an ability that allows individuals to effortlessly extract patterns from the environment, such as sound patterns in speech. Some prior evidence suggests that statistical learning operates more robustly for speech compared to non-speech stimuli, supporting the idea that humans are predisposed to learn language. However, any apparent statistical learning advantage for speech could be driven by signal acoustics, rather than the subjective perception per se of sounds as speech. To resolve this issue, the current study assessed whether there is a statistical learning advantage for ambiguous sounds that are subjectively perceived as speech-like compared to the same sounds perceived as non-speech, thereby controlling for acoustic features. We first induced participants to perceive sine-wave speech (SWS)—a degraded form of speech not immediately perceptible as speech—as either speech or non-speech. After this induction phase, participants were exposed to a continuous stream of repeating trisyllabic nonsense words, composed of SWS syllables, and then completed an explicit familiarity rating task and an implicit target detection task to assess learning. Critically, participants showed robust and equivalent performance on both measures, regardless of their subjective speech perception. In contrast, participants who perceived the SWS syllables as more speech-like showed better detection of individual syllables embedded in speech streams. These results suggest that speech perception facilitates processing of individual sounds, but not the ability to extract patterns across sounds. Our findings suggest that statistical learning is not influenced by the perceived linguistic relevance of sounds, and that it may be conceptualized largely as an automatic, stimulus-driven mechanism.

ЯЗЫКОВОЙ КАТАЛОНСКИЙ НАЦИОНАЛИЗМ В 1870 – 1930-Е ГГ.: ПОЛИТИЧЕСКИЕ ПОКОЛЕНИЯ И СОЦИАЛЬНАЯ МОДЕРНИЗАЦИЯ

The purpose of this study is to analyze the activities of three generations of Catalan philologists and linguists who have made a significant contribution to the development of linguistic Catalan nationalism. The author analyzes the history, directions, forms and features of the activities of several generations of Catalan intellectuals, whose activity contributed to the normalization and standardization of dialect forms of Romance speech in Catalonia, which led to the emergence of the modern Catalan literary language. The novelty of the study lies in the analysis of the historical, political and cultural contribution of nationalist intellectuals to the development of the Catalan language through the prism of the social consequences of modernization processes. The article analyzes 1) the main stages in the history of various generations of Catalan linguistic nationalists, 2) their participation and role in the processes of standardization and normalization of the Catalan language, 3) the contribution of language activists to the consolidation of the Catalan linguistic identity in particular and the national Catalan identity in general, 4) the role nationalist intellectuals, amateurs and professional linguists, in the development of Catalan nationalism, 5) the contribution of linguistic nationalists to raising the status of the Catalan language in the social, political and cultural spaces of Catalonia. It is assumed that Catalan linguistic nationalism significantly complemented political nationalism, contributing to its strengthening and consolidation of the Catalan national identity in contexts of social transformation of the region's society. The generations of linguistic Catalan nationalism are identical to the stages in the history of political and ethnic nationalisms. The results of the study suggest that in the 19th and 20th centuries, the cultural activity of linguistic nationalists contributed to the processes of modernization of Catalonia, which led to the transformation of the region from a peripheral one to a region with complete social and political structures, the functioning of which was impossible without the Catalan language.

Reported speech in individuals with Down syndrome: First evidence.

Narratives are enriched by taking the perspective of the protagonists, which can be expressed using reported speech. Nevertheless, the use of reported speech is unaddressed internationally among individuals with Down syndrome. Narratives of 28 children and adolescents with Down syndrome were collected using a non-verbal picture book. Occurrence and forms of reported speech were analysed and compared to typically-developing children (TD; n = 33). Participants from both populations use reported speech in their narratives with a comparable proportion. Nevertheless, differences appear concerning forms of direct speech with persons with Down syndrome using more free direct speech than TD-children. The results suggest that children and adolescents are able to implement the use of reported speech regardless of their syntactic impairments. Concerning the occurring forms of direct speech, the results might point to cognitive impairments that manifest in limited consideration of the interlocutor's knowledge.

Bridging phenomenology and neural mechanisms of inner speech: ALE meta-analysis on egocentricity and spontaneity in a dual-mechanistic framework

The neural mechanisms of inner speech remain unclear despite its importance in a variety of cognitive processes and its implication in aberrant perceptions such as auditory verbal hallucinations. Previous research has proposed a corollary discharge model in which inner speech is a truncated form of overt speech, relying on speech production-related regions (e.g. left inferior frontal gyrus). This model does not fully capture the diverse phenomenology of inner speech and recent research suggesting alternative perception-related mechanisms of generation. Therefore, we present and test a framework in which inner speech can be generated by two separate mechanisms, depending on its phenomenological qualities: a corollary discharge mechanism relying on speech production regions and a perceptual simulation mechanism within speech perceptual regions. The results of the activation likelihood estimation meta-analysis examining inner speech studies support the idea that varieties of inner speech recruit different neural mechanisms.

DIRECTIVE SPEECH ACT IN EXPRESSION OF MAGICAL POWER ON THE WALLS OF ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

This study aims to describe the form of directive speech act, mode, and function in expression of magical power on the walls of elementary school at Karesidenan Surakarta. This type of research is descriptive qualitative. The data are in the form of words, expressions, and sentences contained expression of magical power on the walls of elementary school at Karesidenan Surakarta. Analyzing data of the research uses referential equivalent, pragmatic, translational, and distribution methods of reading markup techniques. Collecting data uses the documentation method. The results show that first, the expression of magical power on the walls of elementary school at Karesidenan Surakarta indicate two forms of speech acts, namely direct speech act and indirect speech act. Second, the sentence mode used is the imperative mode, the obligative mode, and the declarative-imperative mode. Third, the existing speech act function consists of imperative mode (order, appeal, prohibiting, and invitation/exclamation), obligative mode functions to require, and declarative-imperative mode functions to assert, remind, advise, propose/offer/suggest, governing, and threatening. The novelty of this research found that the expression of magical power on the walls of elementary school generally uses an indirect strategy. The strategy is expressed through a declarative sentence but has an imperative mode with the aim of smoothing the command to the reader. It is intended that the reader follows the command in the expression of magical power on the walls of elementary school.

Leading and following: Noise differently affects semantic and acoustic processing during naturalistic speech comprehension

Despite the distortion of speech signals caused by unavoidable noise in daily life, our ability to comprehend speech in noisy environments is relatively stable. However, the neural mechanisms underlying reliable speech-in-noise comprehension remain to be elucidated. The present study investigated the neural tracking of acoustic and semantic speech information during noisy naturalistic speech comprehension. Participants listened to narrative audio recordings mixed with spectrally matched stationary noise at three signal-to-ratio (SNR) levels (no noise, 3 dB, -3 dB), and 60-channel electroencephalography (EEG) signals were recorded. A temporal response function (TRF) method was employed to derive event-related-like responses to the continuous speech stream at both the acoustic and the semantic levels. Whereas the amplitude envelope of the naturalistic speech was taken as the acoustic feature, word entropy and word surprisal were extracted via the natural language processing method as two semantic features. Theta-band frontocentral TRF responses to the acoustic feature were observed at around 400 ms following speech fluctuation onset over all three SNR levels, and the response latencies were more delayed with increasing noise. Delta-band frontal TRF responses to the semantic feature of word entropy were observed at around 200 to 600 ms leading to speech fluctuation onset over all three SNR levels. The response latencies became more leading with increasing noise and decreasing speech comprehension and intelligibility. While the following responses to speech acoustics were consistent with previous studies, our study revealed the robustness of leading responses to speech semantics, which suggests a possible predictive mechanism at the semantic level for maintaining reliable speech comprehension in noisy environments.

Neural envelope tracking predicts speech intelligibility and hearing aid benefit in children with hearing loss

Early assessment of hearing aid benefit is crucial, as the extent to which hearing aids provide audible speech information predicts speech and language outcomes. A growing body of research has proposed neural envelope tracking as an objective measure of speech intelligibility, particularly for individuals unable to provide reliable behavioral feedback. However, its potential for evaluating speech intelligibility and hearing aid benefit in children with hearing loss remains unexplored. In this study, we investigated neural envelope tracking in children with permanent hearing loss through two separate experiments. EEG data were recorded while children listened to age-appropriate stories (Experiment 1) or an animated movie (Experiment 2) under aided and unaided conditions (using personal hearing aids) at multiple stimulus intensities. Neural envelope tracking was evaluated using a linear decoder reconstructing the speech envelope from the EEG in the delta band (0.5-4 Hz). Additionally, we calculated temporal response functions (TRFs) to investigate the spatio-temporal dynamics of the response. In both experiments, neural tracking increased with increasing stimulus intensity, but only in the unaided condition. In the aided condition, neural tracking remained stable across a wide range of intensities, as long as speech intelligibility was maintained. Similarly, TRF amplitudes increased with increasing stimulus intensity in the unaided condition, while in the aided condition significant differences were found in TRF latency rather than TRF amplitude. This suggests that decreasing stimulus intensity does not necessarily impact neural tracking. Furthermore, the use of personal hearing aids significantly enhanced neural envelope tracking, particularly in challenging speech conditions that would be inaudible when unaided. Finally, we found a strong correlation between neural envelope tracking and behaviorally measured speech intelligibility for both narrated stories (Experiment 1) and movie stimuli (Experiment 2). Altogether, these findings indicate that neural envelope tracking could be a valuable tool for predicting speech intelligibility benefits derived from personal hearing aids in hearing-impaired children. Incorporating narrated stories or engaging movies expands the accessibility of these methods even in clinical settings, offering new avenues for using objective speech measures to guide pediatric audiology decision-making.

Alih Kode Campur Kode dalam Novel Mimpi Bungsu Karya Vanny Chrisma W: Kajian Sosiolinguistik

Analysis of Code Switching and Code Mixing in the Novel Dreams of the Bungsu by Vanny Chrisma W Study: Sociolinguistics. Vanny Chrisma W or Fani Krismawati, born on December 4, 1983 in Sidoarjo, East Java, is the fourth of five children. Vanny Chrisma W once studied at STIE Perbanas Surabaya. Reading books is his hobby in order to increase knowledge and insight. The purpose of this study is to describe the linguistic phenomena that occur in the Dream Bungsu novel by Vanny Chrisma W, namely: (1) the form of code switching and (2) the form of code mixing. This research can be classified as a qualitative descriptive study with the research sample in the form of conversational speech in the Dream Bungsu novel by Vanny Charisma W. The sampling technique used is purposive sampling. The data collection technique used is document analysis. The results in this study indicate that the form of code switching is in the form of 11 sentences in the form of Javanese. And 6 phrases in the form of Jakarta, English, and Javanese. The next findings are, 5 words in the form of Javanese and Jakarta language. The factors causing the use of code switching and code mixing in the Dream Bungsu Novel by Vanny Chrisma W are: (1), fellow Javanese to make it easier to accept the meaning of speech from the speaker to the speech partner, (2) the Javanese who live in the village do not master the Indonesian language. , (3) the use of English to make it look prestige.

Dialect perception in song versus speech

Investigations into style-shift in singing led to the proposal of genre-specific musical sociolects [Coupland, 2011, J. of Soc. 15]. Gibson [2019, Univ. of Canterbury Dissertation] demonstrated that style-shift in popular music is automatic. Additionally, Mageau et al. [2019, Phonetica 76] found non-native English speakers have a less perceptible foreign accent while singing than speaking. These findings provide possible behavioral analogues to the differential processing of speech and song. Gibson [2019, UofCanterbury Dissertation] accounts for this using Todd et al’s [2019, Cognition 185] exemplar theory, emphasizing the role of sung and spoken contexts in perception. We investigate the role of musical context in accent identification. 24 participants completed a dialect-identification task of 32 musical clips from two genres with strong sociocultural associations: country and reggae. 16 clips contained the original instrumental-removed vocals, and 16 different clips from the same songs additionally underwent monotonization and rhythm-normalization. Responses to the manipulated stimuli were more varied than the original vocals. Listeners’ judgements may be more closely tied to country and reggae’s sociocultural associations than speech information itself. These findings counter Mageau et al., illuminating a more complex relationship between accent perception, music, and genre. Future work will investigate this for dialect-nonspecific genres and adjust approaches to stimuli manipulation.

How well do hearing aids amplify “speech glimpses” in multitalker mixtures?

Reductions in speech audibility are more detrimental in the presence of competing sounds, where there is little redundant speech information, than in quiet. Indeed, our previous work suggests that insufficient audibility of “speech glimpses” may partly explain the poor performance of listeners with hearing loss in multitalker mixtures. An implication of those results is that restoring audibility across the spectrum may be especially critical in such situations. Here we asked whether current hearing-aid amplification strategies adequately restore the audibility of speech glimpses. We used ideal time-frequency separation to isolate target speech glimpses from unaided and aided speech mixtures. We then measured intelligibility for the isolated glimpses and for the original mixtures. Participants were young adults with bilateral sensorineural hearing loss, and individualized non-linear amplification (NAL-NL2) was provided using the Oldenburg open Master Hearing Aid. Results show that amplification generally improved the audibility and intelligibility of the target speech glimpses. For some participants, the intelligibility improvements carried over to the mixtures. For others, the improvements were diminished in the mixtures, suggesting that there were counteracting effects. This approach may provide a useful way to unpack positive and negative effects of hearing-aid processing in multitalker mixtures.

The Effectiveness Data-Driven Vocabulary Learning: Hands-on Concordancing through a Pedagogical Corpus

Introduction: Although extensive studies have been carried out on the effectiveness of corpora on teaching vocabulary, the exploration of whether learners can benefit from a pedagogical corpus, particularly regarding hands-on engagement by lower-level learners, has received little attention.
 Purpose: To address this gap in the literature, this study sets out to explore the effectiveness of Data-Driven Learning (DDL) in enhancing the vocabulary acquisition of EFL students at a state university in Turkey through a pedagogical corpus.
 Method: The quasi-experimental study employed a mixed-method research design, in which both quantitative and qualitative data were gathered through vocabulary tests, student questionnaires, and semi-structured interviews. Fifty-eight low-level students with an average age of 19 served as participants. The experimental group made use of hands-on concordancing while the control group received conventional course book-based instruction to learn the target words.
 Results: The results indicate that pedagogical corpora have significant potential in facilitating vocabulary learning of low-level learners. The vocabulary tests revealed that the students who practiced with DDL outperformed the students who received traditional vocabulary instruction in both the post-test and the delayed post-test. The findings from student questionnaires, and semi-structured interviews also denoted that the participants held positive attitudes towards using concordancing to expand their vocabulary and grow aware of some aspects of words such as part of speech information, different meanings and usages, lexico-grammatical structures, and collocations.
 Conclusion: The present study provides useful implications for collection and use of a pedagogical corpus for classroom use.

Roles of bilingualism and musicianship in resisting semantic or prosodic interference while recognizing emotion in sentences

Abstract Listeners can use the way people speak (prosody) or what people say (semantics) to infer vocal emotions. It can be speculated that bilinguals and musicians can better use the former rather than the latter compared to monolinguals and non-musicians. However, the literature to date has offered mixed evidence for this prosodic bias. Bilinguals and musicians are also arguably known for their ability to ignore distractors and can outperform monolinguals and non-musicians when prosodic and semantic cues conflict. In two online experiments, 1041 young adults listened to sentences with either matching or mismatching semantic and prosodic cues to emotions. 526 participants were asked to identify the emotion using the prosody and 515 using the semantics. In both experiments, performance suffered when cues conflicted, and in such conflicts, musicians outperformed non-musicians among bilinguals, but not among monolinguals. This finding supports an increased ability of bilingual musicians to inhibit irrelevant information in speech.

The impact of speech type on listening effort and intelligibility for native and non-native listeners.

Listeners are routinely exposed to many different types of speech, including artificially-enhanced and synthetic speech, styles which deviate to a greater or lesser extent from naturally-spoken exemplars. While the impact of differing speech types on intelligibility is well-studied, it is less clear how such types affect cognitive processing demands, and in particular whether those speech forms with the greatest intelligibility in noise have a commensurately lower listening effort. The current study measured intelligibility, self-reported listening effort, and a pupillometry-based measure of cognitive load for four distinct types of speech: (i) plain i.e. natural unmodified speech; (ii) Lombard speech, a naturally-enhanced form which occurs when speaking in the presence of noise; (iii) artificially-enhanced speech which involves spectral shaping and dynamic range compression; and (iv) speech synthesized from text. In the first experiment a cohort of 26 native listeners responded to the four speech types in three levels of speech-shaped noise. In a second experiment, 31 non-native listeners underwent the same procedure at more favorable signal-to-noise ratios, chosen since second language listening in noise has a more detrimental effect on intelligibility than listening in a first language. For both native and non-native listeners, artificially-enhanced speech was the most intelligible and led to the lowest subjective effort ratings, while the reverse was true for synthetic speech. However, pupil data suggested that Lombard speech elicited the lowest processing demands overall. These outcomes indicate that the relationship between intelligibility and cognitive processing demands is not a simple inverse, but is mediated by speech type. The findings of the current study motivate the search for speech modification algorithms that are optimized for both intelligibility and listening effort.
