- Class Notes:
- http://classinfo.umn.edu/?SLHS1301V+Fall2016
- Class Description:
- Introduction to the physics and biology of spoken language; the talker's production of sounds and words; transmission of sound; the listener's perception of what was heard; and computer analysis and synthesis of speech. Lectures will be supported by computer animations that show, in slow motion, rapidly changing dynamic events in acoustics, by on-line computer analysis of speech, and by laboratory sessions. Objectives: 1) Provide students who have a limited physics and biology background with an introduction to the physics and biology of spoken language, a field that is not only interesting, but of considerable social importance because of the dominant role that speech, language, and hearing play in society; and 2) Introduce students to recent technological advances associated with spoken language such as digital signal processing systems and speech recognition techniques. The trek through history will begin with Kratzenstein, who designed the first speech synthesizer in 1179, and end with an examination of the ways in which current research from disciplines such as physics, biology, psychology, linguistics, speech and hearing science, and so forth contributes to our understanding of the physics and biology of spoken language.
