| Abstract | Research on speech and language, and the development of useful technology based on this research, depends on increasingly sophisticated tools, and most particularly on signal analysis systems. We are using ever more powerful tools to display, measure, edit, and analyze time domain signals including both acoustic productions and physiological activity. The evolution of speech and signal analysis systems at Haskins Laboratories over that past 15 years will be described. The details of our systems are dependent on our particular computing environment, but may of the issues that are discussed are quite general and likely arise in some form whenever an attempt is made to create research tools for general use. |
