Language Specific Speech Feature Variation
Journal Title: International Journal on Computer Science and Engineering - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 4
Abstract
Speech is basically used to impart message from one person to another. There are various properties of speech that may vary from person to person or from language to language. The power of human language is found to be effected by variations in language. However, not much work has been done to analyse similarities and dissimilarities between speech features between English and Hindi language. The prosodic statistics for instance like stress and rhythm which are basically coded into intensity, pitch and formants. We have further examined the utilization of pitch and formants to study the linguistic difference of speech properties in English and Hindi Language. We clustered the speech samples into two categories and concentrated basically on pitch and formant values of speech signals From our study we observed a significant change in the values of pitch and formants in English and Hindi language.
