Differences in mismatch responses to vowels and musical intervals: MEG evidence.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
We investigated the electrophysiological response to matched two-formant vowels and two-note musical intervals, with the goal of examining whether music is processed differently from language in early cortical responses. Using magnetoencephalography (MEG)

How do they do it? The difference between singing and speaking in female altos [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
This paper reports the first set of results of an investigation into the phonetic correlates of female altos’ singing (compared to the extensive research which has been done on males’ singing).

Vocal tract area functions and formant frequencies in opera tenors’ modal and falsetto registers

open access: yes, 2011
According to recent model investigations, vocal tract resonance is relevant to vocal registers. However, no experimental corroboration of this claim has been published so far.

The digital manipulation of vowel formant frequencies for persons with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

open access: yes, 2002
Persons with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (PALS) suffer from a degenerative motor neuron disease that severely affects their speech. Speech therapy helps them compensate or use augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) for communication purposes,

Unsupervised Phoneme Segmentation Based on Main Energy Change for Arabic Speech

open access: yesJournal of Telecommunications and Information Technology, 2017
In this paper, a new method for segmenting speech at the phoneme level is presented. For this purpose, author uses the short-time Fourier transform of the speech signal. The goal is to identify the locations of main energy changes in frequency over time,

Formant frequencies of normal Malaysian Indian young adults in sustained vowels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper investigates the first four formant frequencies of 60 normal Malaysian Indian young adults in sustained vowels using acoustical analysis. The F1, F2, F3 and F4 of Malaysian Indian males were reported at 359±87 Hz, 1457±630 Hz, 2799 ±336 Hz ...

Dutch word stress as pronounced by Indonesian students

open access: yesWacana: Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia, 2009
This study focuses on the way in which the Dutch monophthongal vowels are pronounced by Indonesian students. To investigate whether Indonesian students realize the Dutch vowels correctly, especially when they are stressed, I analysed duration and quality

Vocal tract models, formant frequencies and computational methods

open access: yes, 1982
The determination of formant (or \u27pole\u27) and zero frequencies from area and length data is considered for two- and three-tube vocal tract models.

Extracting spectral envelopes: Formant frequency matching between sounds on different and modulated fundamental frequencies

open access: yes, 2000
The four experiments reported here measure listeners’ accuracy and consistency in adjusting a formant frequency of one- or two-formant complex sounds to match the timbre of a target sound.
