The relationship between acoustic indices of speech motor control variability and other measures of speech performance in dysarthria [PDF]
, 2012 Previous studies suggested that variability indices based on information extracted from the acoustic signal are potentially useful in assessing dysarthric speech.

Spontaneous and explicit speech imitation
, 2013 The single word speech shadowing task typically produces spontaneous imitation of the speech of the shadowed talker (the model). This task has been used as a tool for examining speech convergence in a non-social setting and has provided data for claims ...

Time-regularized linear prediction for noise-robust extraction of the spectral envelope of speech
, 2018 Feature extraction of speech signals is typically performed in short-time frames by assuming that the signal is stationary within each frame. For the extraction of the spectral envelope of speech, which conveys the formant frequencies produced by the ...

Exploring the uncanny valley effect with talking heads
, 2008 Here the "Uncanny Valley", where falling just short of perfection in creating synthetic humans exacts a large negative reaction, is explored with talking head animations focusing on naturalness in speech, face model and face motion.

Super-Wideband Spectral Envelope Modeling for Speech Coding
, 2019 Significant improvements in the quality of speech coders have been achieved by widening the coded frequency range from narrowband to wideband. However, existing speech coders still employ a limited band source-filter model extended by parametric coding ...

Dysarthric speech classification from coded telephone speech using glottal features
, 2021 This paper proposes a new dysarthric speech classification method from coded telephone speech using glottal features. The proposed method utilizes glottal features, which are efficiently estimated from coded telephone speech using a recently proposed ...
