چکیده

The presentation concerns a method for tracking cycle lengths in voiced speech and analysing vocal cycle lengh fluctuations. The tracking of cycle lengths is based on a dynamic programming algorithm, which does not request that the signal is locally periodic and the average period length is known a priori. The obtained cycle length time series is then decomposed into a sum of intrinsic mode functions by means of empirical mode decomposition. These mode functions are then assigned to three categories, which are cycle length jitter, cycle length tremor and trend owing to intonation and physiological tremor. The characteristics of slow and fast perturbations are reported.

Vocal tremor analysis via AM-FM decomposition of empirical modes of the glottal cycle length time series

The presentation concerns a method that obtains the size and frequency of vocal tremor in speech sounds sustained by normal speakers and patients suffering from neurological disorders. The glottal cycle lengths are tracked in the temporal domain via salience analysis and dynamic programming. The cycle length time series is then decomposed into a sum of oscillating components by empirical mode d...

Acoustic and perceptual analysis of vocal tremor

The objective is to present a method to analyze vocal tremor in sustained speech sounds and compare the results with a perceptual scoring of the degree of tremor. The vocal cycle lengths are tracked by salience analysis and dynamic programming. The cycle length time series is then split into three components by empirical mode decomposition: jitter, tremor and trend. Tremor cues are obtained via...

A Fault Diagnosis Method for Automaton based on Morphological Component Analysis and Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition

In the fault diagnosis of automaton, the vibration signal presents non-stationary and non-periodic, which make it difficult to extract the fault features. To solve this problem, an automaton fault diagnosis method based on morphological component analysis (MCA) and ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) was proposed. Based on the advantages of the morphological component analysis method i...
