A Chinese alligator in heliox: formant frequencies in a crocodilian
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2015 Crocodilians are among the most vocal non-avian reptiles. Adults of both sexes produce loud vocalizations known as ‘bellows’ year round, with the highest rate during the mating season. Although the specific function of these vocalizations remains unclear,

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 ...

Removing the Disguise: The Matched Guise Technique, Incongruity, and Listener Awareness
Journal of Sociolinguistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sociophonetic perception is often studied using versions of the matched guise technique (MGT). Linguists using this technique appear united in the methodological assumptions that participants believe the manipulation and that this belief influences perception below the level of introspective awareness.

Second formants in fricatives [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1981 Acoustic analyses of the sibilant fricatives, [s, z, ∫, ȝ], produced in initial position before [a], [i], and [u] were performed. LPC spectra revealed reliable anticipatory vowel coarticulation effects, viz., spectral peaks affiliated with the second formant of the following vowel, present 30–60 ms before vowel onset.

Voice parameters predict sex-specific body morphology in men and women [PDF]
, 2015 Studies of several mammalian species confirm that formant frequencies (vocal tract resonances) predict height and weight better than does fundamental frequency (F0, perceived as pitch) in same-sex adults due to differential anatomical constraints ...

Kuwae, Epi and Tongoa Islands: Transformations of a volcanic landscape in central Vanuatu
Archaeology in Oceania, Volume 60, Issue 1, Page 42-62, April 2025.ABSTRACT This paper presents a detailed overview of archaeological research undertaken on Epi and Tongoa, in central Vanuatu. These islands were previously connected to one another and respectively formed the western and eastern portions of Kuwae, one of the largest islands in the Vanuatu archipelago, until the catastrophic Tombuk volcanic eruption ...

Speech Watermarking Method Based on Formant Tuning
IEICE Trans. Inf. Syst., 2015 This paper proposes a speech watermarking method based on the concept of formant tuning. The characteristic that formant tuning can improve the sound quality of synthesized speech was employed to achieve inaudibility for watermarking.

Jak badać samogłoski metodami akustycznymi?
LingVaria, 2014 How to study vowels using acoustic methods? A proposal of a method based on relative formant frequencies and the cardinal vowels model The first part of the paper proposes a method of studying (or, more precisely, of recognizing) oral vowels, using ...
