A Weighted STOI Intelligibility Metric Based On Mutual Information [PDF]
, 2015 It is known that the information required for the intelligibility of a speech signal is distributed non-uniformly in time. In this paper we propose WSTOI, a modified version of STOI, a speech intelligibility metric.

Anomalous morphology in left hemisphere motor and premotor cortex of children who stutter [PDF]
, 2018 Stuttering is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects the smooth flow of speech production. Stuttering onset occurs during a dynamic period of development when children first start learning to formulate sentences.

On the measures of fluency in the assessment of spontaneous speech production by aphasic subjects
Aphasiology, 1991 Traditionally, 'fluency' is used first to refer to an aphasic syndrome and second to describe only a symptom, a defining speech output feature. Both of these uses may be questioned. Different dimensions of fluency, for instance articulatory agility and use of grammatical words, may be found independent; thus fluency does not identify with a consistent ...

Age-sex variations in maximum performance measures of speech production [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1987 The maximum performance measures of speech production include: phonation volume, maximum phonation time, maximum expiratory pressure, maximum vocal SPL, physiological vocal frequency range, maximum articulatory force, and maximum syllable repetition rate.

Designs and decisions: The creation of informal measures for assessing speech production in children
International Journal of Speech-Language Pathology, 2013 Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) frequently assess children's speech to diagnose and identify areas of difficulty, then determine appropriate intervention goals. Formal measures are available for assessment; however, many SLPs use informal measures within clinical practice.

How to precisely measure the volume velocity transfer function of physical vocal tract models by external excitation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Recently, 3D printing has been increasingly used to create physical models of the vocal tract with geometries obtained from magnetic resonance imaging. These printed models allow measuring the vocal tract transfer function, which is not reliably possible

Open Quotient Measurements Based on Multiscale Product of Speech Signal Wavelet Transform [PDF]
Research Letters in Signal Processing, 2007 This paper describes a multiscale product method (MPM) for open quotient measure in voiced speech. The method is based on determining the glottal closing and opening instants. The proposed approach consists of making the products of wavelet transform of speech signal at different scales in order to enhance the edge detection and parameter estimation ...
