Abstract

Early research in speech perception sought to identify the acoustic cues used in the perception of speech. This research was made possible by the development of the sound spectrograph, the pattern playback, and, later, the computer-driven speech synthesizer

This chapter reflects research supported by the Graduate School, University of Minnesota; the preparation of this chapter was supported in part by grants to the Center for Research in Human Learning, University of Minnesota, from the National Science Foundation (BMS 75-03816).
