Frequency Shifts and Vowel Identification
To study the effects of frequency shifts on vowel identification, a high-quality vocoder (STRAIGHT) was used to process a set of vowels in /hVd/ syllables spoken by two adult males, two adult females, and two children. Vowel identification accuracy was reduced when the spectrum envelope was shifted upward by a factor of 2.0, or downward by a factor of 0.6. Upward shifts produced a smaller decli...
متن کاملFundamental frequency fluctuation in continuous vowel utterance and its perception
Additionally, experiments comparing voice qualities were performed using vowels synthesized using averaged F0s, fluctuation-reduced F0s obtained using highor low-pass filters, and the original F0s with fine fluctuations, to determine which frequency bands of the F0 fluctuations were significant for perceiving voice quality of each group. The experiment results were analyzed using a multidimensi...
متن کاملVowel classification based on fundamental frequency and formant frequencies.
A quadratic discriminant classification technique was used to classify spectral measurements from vowels spoken by men, women, and children. The parameters used to train the discriminant classifier consisted of various combinations of fundamental frequency and the three lowest formant frequencies. Several nonlinear auditory transforms were evaluated. Unlike previous studies using a linear discr...
متن کاملVowel identification at high fundamental frequencies in word context
The question of vowel intelligibility as a function of F0 is still a matter of debate. Above all concerning vowel sounds produced at F0s exceeding vowelrelated statistical F1 in citation-form words (‘oversinging’ F1), it is unclear whether vowel category perception inevitably shifts towards the neighboring category with a higher F1 or can be maintained in such cases. In this study, we tested li...

The question of vowel intelligibility as a function of F0 is still a matter of debate. Above all concerning vowel sounds produced at F0s exceeding vowel related statistical F1 in citation-form words (‘oversinging’ F1), it is unclear whether vowel category perception inevitably shifts towards the neighboring category with a higher F1 or can be maintained in such cases.
