Forced Alignment for Speech Research

Host Institution: 
Website: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/forced-alignment-for-speech-research-registration-245704086537?aff=estw&utm-campaign=social&utm-content=attendeeshare&utm-medium=discovery&utm-source=tw&utm-term=listing

Dates: 28-Feb-2022 - 01-Mar-2022
Location: Online, Online, Germany

Focus: Forced alignment for speech, phonetic research.
Minimum Education Level: No Minimum


Description:
This workshop will be an introduction to forced alignment, an automated
procedure for phonetic segmentation of speech, which uses orthographic
transcription as input. Forced alignment substantially speeds up the
processing of sound files for analysis, and in some cases, it can be used to
fully automate aspects of phonetic analysis. In the workshop, I will introduce
several web-based forced alignment services, and provide hands-on training on
how to use them. This approach does not require advanced computer skills. The
workshop is intended for researchers who have no experience with forced
alignment and who would like to use it for acoustic analysis. It will be
introductory and therefore accessible for undergraduate students.
