MAD Speech: Measures of Acoustic Diversity of Speech
Generative spoken language models produce speech in a wide range of voices, prosody, and recording conditions, seemingly approaching the diversity of natural speech. However, the extent to which generated speech is acoustically diverse remains unclear due to a lack of appropriate metrics.

Microstructure of sound: formants in the dynamical spectra of violin sounds
The aim of the present study was to obtain the picture of the structural changes occuring in the spectra of a violin sound, with the four bowing techniques: detaché, staccato, legato and martele. FFT analysis has been carried out using the system Volyzer

A Review of Audio Features and Statistical Models Exploited for Voice Pattern Design
Audio fingerprinting, also named as audio hashing, has been well-known as a powerful technique to perform audio identification and synchronization. It basically involves two major steps: fingerprint (voice pattern) design and matching search.

Cognitive load associated with speaking clearly in reverberant rooms
Communication is a fundamental aspect of human interaction, yet many individuals must speak in less-than-ideal acoustic environments daily. Adapting their speech to ensure intelligibility in these varied settings can impose a significant cognitive burden.

Using casual speech phonology in synthetic speech
Alphabetic writing is a mixed blessing for speech science. Most scientists working in speech synthesis and speech recognition assume unconsciously that spoken language is like written language, i.e.
