The Problem of Selective Voice Control
Winston E. Kock · The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America · 1952
The development of devices which can be operated automatically from the phonetic content of speech may be viewed in terms of the more general problem of the reduction of channel capacity in communications systems. Significance has been observed in formant positions and movements as regard the identification of speech sound. The basic problems in the derivation of phonemes from the formant patterns are reviewed.
