The Formants of Fricative Consonants
, 1965 Spectral analysis of American English, Swedish and Polish fricatives shows that these sounds may be classified according to the relations between their formant frequencies and formant levels.

Noninvasive Speech Restoration After Total Laryngectomy Using Surface Electromyography: Pilot Study
Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 11, Issue 5, October 2026.We present a pilot study demonstrating that noninvasive surface electromyography (sEMG) can restore intelligible speech in a patient after total laryngectomy by decoding silently articulated muscle activity into synthesized speech, with the option to recreate the patient's own pre‐surgical voice using a small amount of archived audio.

Frequency discrimination of stylized synthetic vowels with two formants
, 1998 Just-noticeable differences (jnd's) in the formant frequencies of synthetic two-formant "vowels" were measured for normal hearing subjects. The jnd's were examined for a change in only the first or the second formant, and for a combined change of both ...

Text-Independent Speaker Identification Using Vowel Formants [PDF]
, 2015 Automatic speaker identification has become a challenging research problem due to its wide variety of applications. Neural networks and audio-visual identification systems can be very powerful, but they have limitations related to the number of speakers.

Altered Timing of Self‐Voice Processing in Parkinson's Disease
European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 64, Issue 7, October 2026.Using a voice playback paradigm, we found that individuals with Parkinson's disease process their own voice with altered timing rather than reduced suppression: the N100 latency shift between self‐generated and externally presented voice was larger in PD, accompanied by an enhanced P200 response, while P50 and N100 amplitude were preserved.

Stressed Vowels in São Tomé and Príncipe Portuguese (STPP)
IsoglossThis paper describes 2 acoustic correlates of oral stressed vowels in Portuguese of São Tomé and Príncipe (STPP): First formant (F1) and second formant (F2). Based on data from Escudero et al.

Classification of Bering‐Chukchi‐Beaufort Bowhead Whale Calls
Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.ABSTRACT Bowhead whales (Balaena mysticetus) are an endemic species to the Arctic Ocean and are highly reliant upon acoustic communication. Despite being one of the most thoroughly studied populations of bowhead whales, we still have a poor understanding of the calling behavior of Bering‐Chukchi‐Beaufort (BCB) bowhead whales.

Pitch Shifting with Formants of Original Sound
, 2014 Pitch shifting is the process of changing the frequencies of a sound but keeping the same duration. This change in frequency creates new formants, changing the character of the original sound. This paper proposes a way to maintain the original formants

Transformation of formants for voice conversion using artificial neural networks
, 1995 In this paper we propose a scheme for developing a voice conversion system that converts the speech signal uttered by a source speaker to a speech signal having the voice characteristics of the target speaker.
