Articulatory modeling based on semi-polar coordinates and guided PCA technique
نویسندگان
چکیده
Research on 2-dimensional static articulatory modeling has been performed by using the semi-polar system and the guided PCA analysis of lateral X-ray images of vocal tract. The density of the grid lines in the semi-polar system has been increased to have a better descriptive precision. New parameters have been introduced to describe the movements of tongue apex. An extra feature, the tongue root, has been extracted as one of the elementary factors in order to improve the precision of tongue model. New methods still remain to be developed for describing the movements of tongue apex.

An Improved 3D Geometric Tongue Model
This study describes an improved geometric articulatory model based on MRI and CBCT(Cone Beam Computer Tomography) data. The basic idea is to improve the coherence of the vertices of tongue meshes so as to obtain more accurate tongue model. This is conducted in two aspects: i) The representative vertices of tongue surface are depicted in Cartesian coordinate system rather than in a semi-polar g...
متن کاملGuided non-linear model estimation (gnoME)
The present work describes a new method for modeling 3-D motion capture data of speech movements. 27 markers on the face of a speaker uttering 27 VCVs were tracked by a Vicon motion capture system. The 3-D coordinates of the markers in all frames of the recording were modeled in four ways: 1) a plain PCA, 2) a guided PCA where each component is determined on a subset of markers that represent a...
متن کاملA Semi-fragile Watermarking Algorithm for Authenticating 2D Engineering Graphics Based on Log-Polar Transformation
A semi-fragile watermarking algorithm for authenticating 2D engineering graphics based on log-polar coordinates mapping is proposed. Firstly, the coordinates of vertices of entities are mapped to the log-polar coordinate system to obtain the invariance of translation, scaling and rotation. Then the watermark is embedded in the mantissa of the real-valued log-polar coordinates via bit substituti...

The aim of the study was to determine the most important environmental factors (topography, climate, and soil) affecting changes in production and canopy cover of plant variations and to prepare prediction maps, based on the most important factor, in semi-steppe rangelands of Hir-Baghrou, Ardabil province, Iran. First, by detecting the vegetation types and different classes of environmental fac...
متن کاملAn enhanced face recognition technique based on Overlapped Modular PCA approach for cropped Log-polar images
-An algorithm for human face recognition, which is based on Overlapped Modular Principal Component Analysis Approach on the Cropped Log-polar images, is presented in this paper. In this technique all the image are divided into sub-images called modules and to avoid loss of features at division lines, overlapped subimages are taken through the division lines. This method is applied on the Croppe...
