Whispered and Lombard speech : different ways to exaggerate articulation

Research output: Chapter in Book / Conference PaperConference Paperpeer-review

Abstract

![CDATA[When speaking in noise (Lombard speech) talkers exaggerate their articulation compared to speaking in quiet. The current study compared motion exaggeration in this speech style with whispered speech by measuring talker’s lip and jaw, and eyebrow and head motion. Four talkers uttered sentences in quiet, noise or in whisper while their face and head movements were recorded with optical tracking. The results showed that both Lombard and whispered speech had movements of greater duration and amplitude than speech in quiet. For half the participants, whispered speech had greater motion than Lombard, whereas the other half showed the opposite pattern.]]
