The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1963
One of the principal problem areas in the perfection of the formant-tracker speech-compression system lies in the extraction with the utmost of precision of the formant traces that are pertinent to the preservation in speech of the articulatory events. Under a current research effort [sponsored by the U. S.

What’s wrong with these formants?
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2007Speech is frequently modeled as an all-pole (autoregressive) linear filter applied to a voice source, commonly called Linear Predictive Coding. This model has been used for many years to provide measurements of the resonance frequencies (formants) characterizing speech sounds.

The attempt to build a talking machine has a long history and can even be traced back to a time before the beginning of the Christian era (Linggard, 1985). The first complete talking machine is due to von Kempelen (1791) and is described in a book of over 400 pages that also reports on the twenty or so years of experimentation that were needed to build

Formant tracking with quasilinearization
ICASSP-88., International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 1988An algorithm for the calculation of formant tracks from a speech signal is presented. It is based on the method of quasilinearization, a nonlinear parameter estimation procedure. What distinguishes this method from the most other methods is the fact that the formants are directly calculated from the speech signal, using a nonlinear model for the speech

The speaker's formant in male voices
Journal of Voice, 1997Spectral analysis of vowels during connected speech can be performed using the spectral intensity distribution within critical bands corresponding to a natural scale on the basilar membrane. Normalization of the spectra provides the opportunity to make objective comparisons independent from the recording level. An increasing envelope peak between 3,150

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1995
This series of experiments examines the relation between the basic capabilities of the peripheral auditory system to process speech and the classification of speech at more central levels. Psychophysical techniques have been applied to determine listeners’ abilities to detect, discriminate, and identify speech sounds.

Perspectives of the ASHA Special Interest Groups, 2019
Purpose The use and study of formant frequencies for the description of vowels is commonplace in acoustic phonetics and in attempts to understand results of speech perception studies. Numerous studies have shown that listeners are better able to distinguish vowels when the acoustic parameters are based on spectral information ...

Formant trajectories as indices of phonetic variation for speaker identification
, 2013Formant trajectories are known to acoustically encode static and dynamic aspects of speech, which have potential to identify the speaker, such as differences in vocal tract morphology, articulatory setting, dialect, and speaking style.

Articulatory interpretation of the “singing formant”
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1974The “singing formant” is a high spectrum envelope peak near 2.8 kHz characteristic of vowel sounds produced in male Western opera and concert singing. An acoustical model of the vocal tract is capable of generating such a peak provided that three conditions are met: (1) The cross-sectional area in the pharynx must be at least six times wider than that ...
