3. 2. Perception, Analysis and Synthesis of Speaker Age

   Författare :Susanne Schötz; Fonetik; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; phonology; perceptual cues; speaker age; automatic speaker recognition; acoustic analysis; acoustic correlates; data-driven; Phonetics; formant synthesis; Fonetik; fonologi; Technological sciences; Teknik;

   Sammanfattning : Speaker age is an important paralinguistic feature in speech which has to be considered in the study of phonetic variation. Knowledge about this feature may be used to improve speech technology applications, e.g. automatic speech recognition and speech synthesis. LÄS MER

4. 3. Why so different? - Aspects of voice characteristics in operatic and musical theatre singing : Aspects of voice characteristics in operatic and musical theatre singing

   Författare :Eva Björkner; Anders Askenfelt; Ronald C. Scherer; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; operatic singing; musical theatre singing; voice source; subglottal pressure; flow glottogram; inverse filtering; formant frequencies; amplitude quotient AQ ; Music; Musikvetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis addresses aspects of voice characteristics in operatic and musical theatre singing. The common aim of the studies was to identify respiratory, phonatory and resonatory characteristics accounting for salient voice timbre differences between singing styles. LÄS MER

5. 4. That voice sounds familiar : factors in speaker recognition

   Författare :Erik J. Eriksson; Kirk P. H. Sullivan; Christopher Darwin; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; speaker recognition; accent; emotions; hearing; spectral moments; formant transitions; dialect; Cognitive science; Kognitionsvetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : Humans have the ability to recognize other humans by voice alone. This is important both socially and for the robustness of speech perception. This Thesis contains a set of eight studies that investigates how different factors impact on speaker recognition and how these factors can help explain how listeners perceive and evaluate speaker identity.

7. 5. The Voice Source in Speech Communication - Production and Perception Experiments Involving Inverse Filtering and Synthesis

   Författare :Christer Gobl; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :Voice source dynamics; glottal source parameters; source-filter interaction; voice quality; phonation; perception; affect; emotion; mood; attitude; paralinguistic; inverse filtering; knowledge-based; formant synthesis; LF model; fundamental frequency;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis explores, through a number of production andperception studies, the nature of the voice source signal andhow it varies in spoken communication. Research is alsopresented that deals with the techniques and methodologies foranalysing and synthesising the voice source. LÄS MER
