Biomechanical parameter fingerprint in the mucosal wave power spectral density
نویسندگان
چکیده
The importance of mucosal wave detection and estimation has been stressed in literature regarding the automatic classification and recognition of larynx pathologies from voice records. Using a new estimation method of the mucosal wave correlate and simulation results from a 2-mass model of the vocal folds the present paper shows that the main fingerprints found in the power spectral density of the mucosal wave correlate are directly related to the biomechanics of the system. These findings open the door to the non-invasive estimation of biomechanical parameters of the vocal folds directly from voice records, thus easing the task of automatic pathologic classification and recognition.

It has been shown in previous work that biomechanical parameters related to the cord body dynamics can be indirectly estimated from the power spectral density of the mucosal wave correlate [4]. In the present study the use of these measurements to estimate the presence of parameter unbalance will be shown. The role of these parameters together with the classical distortion ones in relation to p...
متن کاملInvestigating on the Effects of Random Irregularities of Railway Track by Half-Bogie Model
The vibrations produced by trains include two parts which are deterministic and random vibrations. Due to variation of dynamic loads and patterns of load-time, the random vibration of moving train is one of the most important issues in the field of railway engineering. One of the important sources in producing the train vibrations is rail roughness and irregularities. In this paper, responses o...
متن کاملPower Spectral Density Analysis of Purkinje Cell Tonic and Burst Firing Patterns From a Rat Model of Ataxia and Riluzole Treated
Introduction: Purkinje Cell (PC) output displays a complex firing pattern consisting of high frequency sodium spikes and low frequency calcium spikes, and disruption in this firing behavior may contribute to cerebellar ataxia. Riluzole, neuroprotective agent, has been demonstrated to have neuroprotective effects in cerebellar ataxia. Here, the spectral analysis of PCs firing in control, 3-acety...
متن کاملGlottal Source biometrical signature for voice pathology detection
The Glottal Source is an important component of voice as it can be considered as the excitation signal to the voice apparatus. The use of the Glottal Source for pathology detection or the biometric characterization of the speaker are important objectives in the acoustic study of the voice nowadays. Through the present work a biometric signature based on the speaker’s power spectral density of t...
متن کاملRheological Response and Validity of Viscoelastic Model Through Propagation of Harmonic Wave in Non-Homogeneous Viscoelastic Rods
This study is concerned to check the validity and applicability of a five parameter viscoelastic model for harmonic wave propagating in the non-homogeneous viscoelastic rods of varying density. The constitutive relation for five parameter model is first developed and validity of these relations is checked. The non-homogeneous viscoelastic rods are assumed to be initially unstressed and at rest....
