Unlock a complete picture of vocal tract articulation from speech using MRI data, surpassing the limitations of traditional sensor-based methods.

You can reconstruct vocal tract shapes from clean speech almost as well as from noisy MRI recordings, opening the door to more practical articulatory analysis.

Expert-corrected phonetic transcriptions can approach the performance of MFCCs for vocal tract reconstruction from speech, suggesting phonetic information is a viable alternative to acoustic features.
