Formant Trajectories for Acoustic-to-Articulatory Inversion

open access: yes, 2009
This work examines the utility of formant frequencies and their energies in acoustic-to-articulatory inversion. For this purpose, formant frequencies and formant spectral amplitudes are automatically estimated from audio, and are treated as observations ...

Formant prediction from MFCC vectors

open access: yes, 2004
This work proposes a novel method of predicting formant frequencies from a stream of mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC) feature vectors. Prediction is based on modelling the joint density of MFCC vectors and formant vectors using a Gaussian ...

Kinematic formant-to-area mapping

open access: yes, 1997
This article presents a method of formant-to-area mapping consisting of the direct calculation of the time derivatives of the cross-sections and length of a vocal tract model so that the time derivatives of the observed formant frequencies and the model ...

Formant Centers of Two Formant Pulse Resonance Sounds and Example Spectrum.

open access: yes, 2015
A: Distribution of the 55 formant frequencies used to map out formant receptive fields. Formants are spaced between 10 and 20 kHz at 0.1 octave intervals. B: Amplitude spectrum of the example stimulus marked with a black circle in A.

Persian Vowel Production in Hearing-Impaired Children With Cochlear Implants: The Influence of the Implantation Age

open access: yesFunction and Disability Journal, 2021
Background and Objectives: Speech intelligibility is affected by vowel quality. Auditory feedback is an essential factor in vowel quality. The purpose of the current study was to compare vowel space and formant frequencies in Normal-Hearing (NH) and ...

Data-driven formant synthesis

open access: yes, 2008
A new method of speech synthesis, which combines earlier work on data-driven formant synthesis with improved data extraction and concatenation of recorded voiceless segments, has been developed and implemented as a TTS system.

Formant Estimation Method Using Inverse-Filter Control

open access: yes, 2001
This paper proposes a new method for estimating formant frequencies of speech signals, based on inverse-filter control and zero-crossing frequency distributions.

The male voice: an evolutionary perspective

open access: yes
The introduction to this thesis outlines the evolutionary theory of human mating behaviour and describes the process of vocal production and auditory perception in humans. In addition it provides a brief overview of some of the research studies examining

Towards an improved model of dynamics for speech recognition and synthesis

open access: yes, 2012
This thesis describes the research on the use of non-linear formant trajectories to model speech dynamics under the framework of a multiple-level segmental hidden Markov model (MSHMM).
