Phonetics and its Applications - Festschrift for Jens-Peter Köster on the Occasion of his 60th Birthday

This Festschrift comprises 44 contributions by 63 researchers from 22 different countries. The papers cover a wide range of issues in phonetics and signal processing. Just about every major research topic which is currently being studied is also addressed in this volume: speaker characterization and identification, speech recognition, speech synthesis, prosody, voice quality, the phonetics of disordered speech, child speech, the history of phonetics, the relation between phonetics and phonology, to name only a few. This makes it a kind of compendium of modern phonetics which should be of interest to the student seeking an overview on e.g. speech recognition and likewise to the researcher seeking specialized information on e.g. speaker identification.
