Acoustic Characteristics Analysis on the Tracheoesophageal Speech
Tracheoesophageal (TE) speech has been the current preferred treatment for speech rehabilitation after total laryngectomy, but due to the lack of objective evaluation criteria, it is tough to operate a qualitative analysis on the effects of postoperative speech rehabilitation. The present paper advanced an objective evaluation system involving acoustic characteristics parameters such as fundame...
متن کاملAnalysis and Quantification of Acoustic Artefacts in Tracheoesophageal Speech
After total laryngectomy, the placement of a tracheoesophageal (TE) puncture offers the possibility to gain a new voice. However, the produced TE speech is known to have a lower quality and intelligibility. The goal of this paper is to identify and quantify the acoustic artefacts in TE speech. The advantage of this study is two-fold. First, the proposed measures can be used by speech therapists...
متن کاملTracheoesophageal speech: A dedicated objective acoustic assessment
After total laryngectomy, the placement of a tracheoesophageal (TE) prosthesis offers the possibility to recover a new voice. However, the quality of the resulting TE speech is known to be degraded. To assess a patient’s voice, current approaches rely either on quality-of-life questionnaires or on a perceptual evaluation carried out by speech therapists. These two methods exhibit the disadvanta...
متن کاملAn Introduction to Speech Sciences (Acoustic Analysis of Speech)
Speech sciences deal with the acoustical characteristics of speech by means of sophisticated soft wares as well as hard wares. Although, a speech science is a well known science in the developed countries, especially the western societies, however, it has been remained almost unknown in Iran, though, in recent years a group of scholars have been involved in this branch of science. The applicati...
متن کاملComparisons of perceptual and acoustic characteristics of tracheoesophageal and excellent esophageal speech.
The results of recent studies have established significant acoustic differences between tracheoesophageal (TE) and conventional esophageal speech. Listener preferences and acoustic differences between TE and excellent esophageal speech were examined in the present investigation. Although, as a group, TE speech was characterized by longer extended phonation, more syllables per breath, and increa...
