A New Approach to the Formant Measuring Problem

open access: yesProceedings, 2019
Formants are characteristic frequency components in human speech that are caused by resonances in the vocal tract during speech production. They are of primary concern in acoustic phonetics and speech recognition.

Loanwords and Linguistic Phylogenetics: *pelek̑u‐ ‘axe’ and *(H)a(i̯)g̑‐ ‘goat’1

open access: yesTransactions of the Philological Society, Volume 123, Issue 1, Page 116-136, March 2025.
Abstract This paper assesses the role of borrowings in two different approaches to linguistic phylogenetics: Traditional qualitative analyses of lexemes, and quantitative computational analysis of cognacy. It problematises the assumption that loanwords can be excluded altogether from datasets of lexical cognacy.

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 ...

Sound Visualization Demonstrates Velopharyngeal Coupling and Complex Spectral Variability in Asian Elephants

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
Sound production mechanisms set the parameter space available for transmitting biologically relevant information in vocal signals. Low–frequency rumbles play a crucial role in coordinating social interactions in elephants’ complex fission–fusion ...

The Development of Indo‐Iranian Voiced Fricatives

open access: yesTransactions of the Philological Society, Volume 123, Issue 1, Page 97-115, March 2025.
Abstract The development of voiced sibilants is a long‐standing puzzle in Indo‐Iranian historical phonology. In Vedic, all voiced sibilants are lost from the system, but the details of this loss are complex and subject to debate. The most intriguing development concerns the word‐final ‐aḥ to ‐o in sandhi.

The Role of A Surgeon in Restoring the Senses & in Biomedical Engineering

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This review is based on my 2025 Jepson Lecture and outlines my personal journey to restore hearing in people with a severe sensorineural hearing loss. My dream started as a 5‐year‐old as I told my kindergarten teacher when I grow up ‘I want to fix ears’ because my father is deaf. The journey resulted in a career in surgery followed by auditory

Development of neural network database for biometric images based on several parameters of voice sound spectrum for authentication and authorization by voice

open access: yesБезопасность информационных технологий, 2019
This study focuses on the methods of biometric authentication and identification of network administrators by voice. The authors propose a method for presenting unique voice parameters, as well as the principle of constructing an artificial neural ...

Social voice judgement is dyadic: Acoustic typicality and interpersonal similarity interact

open access: yesBritish Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The formation of social first impressions from voices is a central component of everyday social interactions. While past research has primarily investigated the effect of bottom‐up voice acoustic on social voice judgements, here we widen the perspective and investigate how bottom‐up acoustic and top‐down interpersonal similarity interactively ...

Automated Heart Valve Disorder Detection Based on PDF Modeling of Formant Variation Pattern in PCG Signal

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
Heart valve disorder (HVD) analysis from heart sound is being well known for a long period of time, and use of digital stethoscope gives opportunity to diagnose HVDs from phonocardiographic (PCG) signal.
