    Abstract: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the acquisition of non-contrastive phonetic details of a second language. Reduced vowels in English are realized as a schwa or barred- i depending on their phonological contexts, but Korean has no reduced vowels. Two groups of Korean learners of English who differed according to the experience of residence in English-speaking countries and a group of English native speakers were asked to produce English reduced vowels in word-initial, word-internal and word-final positions. The mean duration ratios, and the mean values and distribution patterns of F1/F2 of the reduced vowels were compared between the three groups, which revealed that Korean learners without residence experience tended to produce each variant of English reduced vowels as the corresponding full vowels, whereas those with experience displayed similar patterns to the natives. The present results suggest that it is possible for second language (L2) learners to learn the statistical properties in L2.

    Abstract: The typicality effect delineates a graded membership structure during categorization, whereby a typical item is easier to be judged as a member of a category than is an atypical item. The current study brought experimental evidence of the typicality representation of advanced Thai learners of Chinese, in order to compare the organization of the mental lexicon in the learners’ second language and first language. Three types of instances (i.e., typical in both Chinese and Thai (C1), typical in Chinese but not in Thai (C2), and typical in Thai but not in Chinese (C3)) in five categories (i.e., BIRD, VEGETABLE, FRUIT, FURNITURE, APPLIANCE) were presented in instance-category order. The response time of typicality judgement showed a similarity between natives and L2 learners, but that the response time of second language learners to C1 was not significantly longer than that to C2. These results suggested that high proficiency could modify the construction of a qualitatively native-like typicality representation, and that language-specific typicality was still beyond conceptualization in second language.

    Abstract: Low bit rate speech coding of 2.4 kbps is actualized by mixed excitation linear prediction algorithm, which meets the requirement of high data rate of underwater speech communication system and the limit of high communication rate of underwater acoustic communication technique. In the process of speech coding, a great deal of speech data is compressed to high speed underwater acoustic communication, and the main characteristics of speaker are remained perfectly. Meanwhile, the capability of avoiding interference is improved obviously by the speech based on contact conduction transmitter as input signal. This underwater speech coding technique and differential OFDM technique are combined and experimented under 434, 1310, and 2000 m in the lake. The real-time transmission of speech signal is presented in the condition of complicated multi-path in the extremely shallow sea. The results show the synthesized speech has well quality of intelligibility and clarity, which satisfies the demand of underwater speech coding.
