Comparing methods for automatic extraction of voice source parameters from continuous speech
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two methods are presented for automatic calculation of the voice source parameters from continuous speech. Both methods are used to calculate the voice source parameters for natural speech. However, for natural speech no objective test proce dure seems available. Therefore, both methods were also tested on synthetic speech.

Automatic voice-source parameterization of natural speech
We present here our work in automatic parameterization of natural speech by means of a pitch synchronous source-filter decomposition algorithm. The derivative glottal source is modelled using the Liljencrants-Fant (LF) model. The model parameters are obtained simultaneously with the coefficients of an all-pole filter representing the vocal tract response by means of a quadratic programming algo...

Introduction: The art of voice mimicking by computers, has with the computer have been one of the most challenging topics of speech processing in recent years. The system of voice conversion has two sides. In one side, the speaker is the source that his or her voice has been changed for mimicking the target speaker’s voice (which is on the other side). Two methods of p...
متن کاملComparing the Voice Handicap Index Scores in Groups with Structural and Functional Voice Disorders
Objective: The effects of voice disorders vary from person to person. Occupation, work environment, life, and family reaction are variables that affect one’s perception of his/her own as an impaired voice. Voice Handicap Index (VHI) has not yet been used to compare the degree of voice disorders. Assuming that the quality of life may be different under a variety of voice disorders and that diffe...
متن کاملOn the relation between voice source parameters and prosodic features in connected speech
The behaviour of the voice source characteristics in connected speech was studied. Voice source parameters were obtained by automatic inverse filtering, followed by automatic fitting of a glottal waveform model to the data. Consistent relations between voice source parameters and prosodic features were observed.
متن کاملAutomatic parametrization of differentiated glottal flow: Comparing methods by means of synthetic flow pulses
The automatic parametrization of the first derivative of glottal flow is studied. Representatives of the two types of methods used most often for parametrization were tested and compared. The chosen representatives are all based on the Liljencrants–Fant model. As numerous tests were needed for a detailed comparison of the methods, a novel evaluation procedure is used which consists of the follo...
