Pitch-Synchronous Time-Domain Estimation of Formant Frequencies and Bandwidths

Abstract: A technique for the measurement of vocal-tract formant frequencies and bandwidths during voiced speech is described. A theoretical justification for the method is presented, based on a model of the vocal tract that is linear and stationary over time intervals of the order of one pitch period (approximately 0.01 sec). In brief, the technique consists of selecting a portion of one pitch period of a speech waveform during which the glottis is closed. This finite-duration signal is approximated in a weighted-least… Show more

“…In order to adapt the spacing of the teeth of the comb filter in synchrony with variations in voicing, knowledge of the glottal pulse epochs is required. There have been many TD realizations of this pitch-synchronous method, which have accommodated timing variations by truncation and zero-padding [7], [29], [30], scaling [15], least-squares alignment [27], [31], or dynamic time warping [17].…”

“…Acoustic data transformation into spectral form performed using short-time Fourier analysis of speech wave [1]. However, its application degraded because of nonstationary and quasiperiodic properties of speech wave [2]. Therefore, spectral analysis may not provide an accurate description of speech articulation.…”
