Gesture-based Dynamic Bayesian Network for noise robust speech recognition
Previously we have proposed different models for estimating articulatory gestures and vocal tract variable (TV) trajectories from synthetic speech. We have shown that when deploye...

Decomposition of speech signals for analysis of aperiodic components of excitation
The motivation for this study is the need for careful analysis of aperiodicity of the excitation component in expressive voices. The paper proposes analysis methods which can pres...

Investigating articulatory setting - pauses, ready position, and rest - using real-time MRI
We present a novel automatic procedure to analyze articulatory setting (AS) or basis of articulation using realtime magnetic resonance images (rt-MRI) of the human vocal tract rec...

Applying discretized articulatory knowledge to dysarthric speech
This paper applies two dynamic Bayes networks that include theoretical and measured kinematic features of the vocal tract, respectively, to the task of labeling phoneme sequences ...

Voice Conversion by Prosody and Vocal Tract Modification
In this paper we proposed some flexible methods, which are useful in the process of voice conversion. The proposed methods modify the shape of the vocal tract system and the chara...

Advanced Methods for Glottal Wave Extraction
Abstract. Glottal inverse filtering is a technique used to derive the glottal waveform during voiced speech. Closed phase inverse filtering (CPIF) is a common approach for achiev...

Pseudo Cepstral Analysis of Czech Vowels
Real generalized cepstral analysis is introduced and applied to speech deconvolution. Real pseudo cepstrum of the vocal tract model impulse response is defined and applied to the a...

The role of voice source measures on automatic gender classification
Physiological properties of the glottis and the vocal tract change with age and gender. Since these changes are reflected in the speech signal, acoustic measures related to those...

On separating glottal source and vocal tract information in telephony speaker verification
The popular mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs) capture a mixture of speaker-related, phonemic and channel information. Speaker-related information could be further broke...
