Recovering vocal tract shapes from MFCC parameters
Recovering vocal tract shapes from the speech signal is a well known inversion problem of transformation from the articulatory system to speech acoustics. Most of the studies on this problem in the past have been focused on vowels. There have not been general methods e ective for recovering the vocal tract shapes from the speech signal for all classes of speech sounds. In this paper we describe...
متن کاملSimplification of vocal tract shapes with different levels of detail
We propose a semi-automatic method to regenerate simplified vocal tract geometries from very detailed input (e.g. MRI-based geometry) with the possibility to control the level of detail, while maintaining the overall properties. The simplification procedure controls the number and organization of the vertices in the vocal tract surface mesh and can be assigned to replace complex cross-sections ...

متن کاملSpeaker-specific Typical Vocal Tract Shapes Obtained Using Dynamic MRI
Biomedical imaging techniques are applied to observe the hidden process of human articulation. We propose a new approach for obtaining a typical image for a phoneme’s articulation. We use vocal tract images captured using dynamic MRI, and by considering image spatial characteristics (intensities), we calculate the average of different instances of phoneme articulation. The obtained image presen...
متن کاملTechniques for estimating vocal-tract shapes from the speech signal
This paper reviews methods for mapping from the acoustical properties of a speech signal to the geometry of the vocal tract that generated the signal. Such mapping techniques are studied for their potential application in speech synthesis, coding, and recognition. Mathematically, the estimation of the vocal tract shape from its output speech is a so-called inverse problem, where the direct prob...
