Sex-specific fundamental and formant frequency patterns in a cross-sectional study [PDF]
, 2001 An extensive developmental acoustic study of the speech patterns of children and adults was reported by Lee and colleagues [Lee et al., J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 105, 1455-1468 (1999)].

Automatic formant tracking [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1974 A formant tracker has been implemented which assigns frequency, amplitude, and bandwidth to each of the first three formants for each 10-msec voiced segment of continuous speech. Its input parameters are fundamental frequency, rms, and up to five spectral peaks below 5000 Hz with their respective amplitudes and bandwidths.

Formant Modification through Vocal Production Learning in Gray Seals.
Current Biology, 2019 Vocal production learning is a rare communication skill and has only been found in selected avian and mammalian species [1-4]. Although humans use learned formants and voiceless sounds to encode most lexical information [5], evidence for vocal learning ...

Extraction of vocal-tract system characteristics from speechsignals [PDF]
, 1998 We propose methods to track natural variations in the characteristics of the vocal-tract system from speech signals. We are especially interested in the cases where these characteristics vary over time, as happens in dynamic sounds such as consonant ...

Waveguide physical modeling of vocal tract acoustics: flexible formant bandwidth control from increased model dimensionality [PDF]
, 2006 Digital waveguide physical modeling is often used as an efficient representation of acoustical resonators such as the human vocal tract. Building on the basic one-dimensional (1-D) Kelly-Lochbaum tract model, various speech synthesis techniques ...

Detrending the Waveforms of Steady-State Vowels
Entropy, 2020 Steady-state vowels are vowels that are uttered with a momentarily fixed vocal tract configuration and with steady vibration of the vocal folds. In this steady-state, the vowel waveform appears as a quasi-periodic string of elementary units called pitch ...

Corner vowels in males and females ages 4 to 20 years: Fundamental and F1-F4 formant frequencies.
Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2019 The purpose of this study was to determine the developmental trajectory of the four corner vowels' fundamental frequency (fo) and the first four formant frequencies (F1-F4), and to assess when speaker-sex differences emerge.

F0-induced formant measurement errors result in biased variabilities.
Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2019 Many developmental studies attribute reduction of acoustic variability to increasing motor control. However, linear prediction-based formant measurements are known to be biased toward the nearest harmonic of F0, especially at high F0s.

An Acoustic Account of Turkic Vowels [PDF]
زبان پژوهی, 2021 1. INTRODUCTION The Turkish language is mainly spoken in Azerbaijan and Iran (Johanson 2010). After Farsi as the official language, Turkish, with approximately 15–20 million speakers, has the most speakers in Iran (Crystal 2010).
