Formant Trajectories for Acoustic-to-Articulatory Inversion
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
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
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.
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.

The male voice: an evolutionary perspective
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
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).
