Document Summary
Artificial intelligence (ai, computer) is hard to recognize the language like human, since the spoken language has too much variance. However, human brain is easy to deal with the huge variability of the spoken language. Frequency = the number of the cycles in a second (hz) more cycle, higher frequency, higher hz. The vowel we hear are based on a modification of the sound source in a manner that is determined by the resonant characteristics of the oral cavity or vocal tract during the production of that sound. The characteristics of the oral cavity = the shape of the mouth, lips, teeth, and so on. Sound produced by the air flowing through the bounded area. The specific sound is composed of the resonant frequencies associated with the size and shape of the space where the air flows through. The jar will produce sounds with higher frequency than before, since the chamber is smaller than before.
