Summary :

In order to evaluate the speaker-factor in uttered words, multivariate analysis of variance for four-factor design with repeated measurements has been applied to the analysis of the spectral vectors obtained from Japanese V₁ CV₂ utterances by 10 adult male speakers, where V₁, V₂/a, i, u, e, o/ and Cm, n, η/. The speaker, the vowel V₁, the consonant C, and the vowel V₂ have been assigned to the four factors, respectively, and the interaction between speaker-factor and V₁, C or V₂-factor has been especially interesting in the analysis. As the results, what we should take into account as to the co-articulation of a certain phoneme are (1) the main effect of the phoneme, (2) the main effect of the just preceding (or following) phoneme, (3) the interaction between the phoneme and the just preceding (or following) phoneme, and (4) the main effect of the speaker-factor. The interactions between the speaker-factor and these phonemes are relatively small, and the influence of the speaker-factor to the co-articulation is not so complicated. These facts imply possibility of the speaker-independent description about the phoneme and the rule of co-articulation.
