Segment features in different speech styles

Pavel A. Skrelin

The paper deals with the results of the study of the differences of Russian spontaneous speech and reading on segmental and prosodic levels. The data obtained for the moment shows that the difference in phoneme realization between spontaneous speech and text reading is not regular and in some cases it is absent. This difference is very significant between these speaking styles and reading of isolated words. This fact explains difficulties in transition from automatic recognition of isolated words to the continuous speech recognition.
