Cognitive Models of Speech Processing
Gerry T. M. Altmann

"This volume is one of the most valuable publications in psycholinguistics of the last decade. . . . [a] coherent picture of the rich theoretical and methodological scene that comprises psycholinguistics today."
-- Howard S. Kurtzman, Computational Linguistics

[A] highly valuable contribution to the literature."
-- Carol A. Fowler, Language and Speech

Cognitive Models of Speech Processing presents extensive reviews of current thinking on psycholinguistic and computational topics in speech recognition and natural-language processing, along with a substantial body of new experimental data and computational simulations. Topics range from lexical access and the recognition of words in continuous speech to syntactic processing and the relationship between syntactic and intonational structure.
