Hybrid Autoregressive Resonance Estimation and Density Mixture Formant Tracking Model

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
A novel formant tracker is proposed using the mixture models oft densities (tMMs) for vocal tract resonance frequencies estimated with a hybrid linear prediction (HLP) method.

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.

Effects of Palatal Expansion on Speech Production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Introduction: Rapid palatal expanders (RPEs) are a commonly used orthodontic adjunct for the treatment of posterior crossbites. RPEs are cemented to bilateral posterior teeth across the palate and thus may interfere with proper tongue movement and ...

Biomechanics and Evolution of the Primate Tongue

open access: yesEvolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 35, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Primate tongue morphology and function are critical to understanding the evolution of feeding, swallowing, and vocalization. In this paper, we examine the primate tongue as a muscular hydrostat with regionally specialized neuromuscular compartments. We integrate anatomical, kinematic, and biomechanical modeling approaches to analyze how muscle

Neural Resolution of Formant Frequencies in the Primary Auditory Cortex of Rats.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Pulse-resonance sounds play an important role in animal communication and auditory object recognition, yet very little is known about the cortical representation of this class of sounds.

Bio-inspired Dynamic Formant Tracking for Phonetic Labelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
It is a known fact that phonetic labeling may be relevant in helping current Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) when combined with classical parsing systems as HMM's by reducing the search space.

Speech Watermarking Method Based on Formant Tuning

open access: yesIEICE 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.

Exploring Acoustic Overlap in Second Language Vowel Productions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 1293-1304, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines the alignment of vowel categories between second language (L2) learners and first language (L1) speakers of the target language, as well as potential overlaps between adjacent vowels in terms of formant frequencies and duration.

THE IMPACT OF LEXICAL STRESS TYPE AND POSITION OF A VOWEL WITHIN A PHRASE ON VOWEL FORMANT BANDWIDTHS

open access: yesВестник Волгоградского государственного университета: Серия 2. Языкознание, 2020
The article sets out to explore the impact of different types of lexical stress and word position within a phrase as well as the interaction of these factors on formant bandwidths.

Speech Sensorimotor Learning through a Virtual Vocal Tract [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Studies of speech sensorimotor learning often manipulate auditory feedback by modifying isolated acoustic parameters such as formant frequency or fundamental frequency using near real-time resynthesis of a participant\u27s speech. An alternative approach
