Lpc Modeling with Speech Production Constraints
نویسنده
چکیده
Despite the approximations it supposes, performing LPC-based acoustico-articulatory inversion is justified in some applicative frameworks. By illustrating this assertion through experiments aiming at incorporating speech production constraints from the DRM model and from a factor-based model into an LPC modeling scheme, we promote the use of LPC-based inversion as an interface between Production Modeling and Automatic Speech Processing methods.

Linear Predictive Coding is All-Pole Resonance Modeling
Linear predictive coding (LPC) is a widely used technique in audio signal processing, especially in speech signal processing. It has found particular use in voice signal compression, allowing for very high compression rates. As widely adopted as it is, LPC is covered in many textbooks and is taught in most advanced audio signal processing courses. So why another article on LPC? Despite covering...
متن کاملProduction Constraints Modelling: A Tactical Review Approach
A constraint is a limitation or a restriction that poses a threat to the performance and efficiency of a system. This paper presented a tactical review approach to production constraints modeling. It discussed the theory of constraints (TOC) as a thinking process and continuous improvement strategy to curtail constraints in other to constantly increase the performance and efficiency of a system...
متن کاملSurface Modeling of Vocal Tract Shapes in Transition Segments of Vowel-consonant-vowel Syllables for Estimation of Place of Closure
Production of vowel-stop consonant-vowel syllables involves movement of articulators from the articulatory position of the vowel towards that of the stop closure to that of the vowel. Movement of articulators before and after a stop closure is characterized by formant transitions. The closure portion of a stop have zero or low signal energy and relevant spectral information is not available. He...
متن کاملHuman speech production - an internet-based interactive multimodal tutorial
We are presenting a tutorial which describes how a human produces speech and how this speech production can be simulated by an LPC vocoder. In the first section, we describe that speech is generated by a periodic or noise-like signal of the vocal cords which excites the articulation tract (mouth, nose cavity). The next section explains how this natural sound production is simulated by an LPC vo...
متن کاملEstimation of Place of Articulation During Stop Closures of Vowel-Consonant-Vowel Utterances
Production of vowel–oral stop consonant–vowel utterances involves movement of articulators from the articulatory position of the initial vowel towards that of the oral stop closure, and then to that of the final vowel. As the closure segments have zero or low signal energy, linear predictive coding (LPC)-based estimation of vocal tract shape fails during stop closure. This paper reports a techn...
