This study was designed to determine the effect of stimulated vocal loudness on nasalance in individuals with various dysarthria subtypes. Thirty participants produced three stimulated levels of vocal loudness while reading a nonnasal passage. Data included dysarthria classification, vocal sound pressure level, nasalance, and listener perception of nasality. There was not a predictable relation...

Background: Vocal abuse and misuse would result in vocal fold polyp. Certain features define the extent of vocal folds polyp effects on voice acoustic parameters. The present study aimed to define the effects of polyp size on acoustic voice parameters, and compare these parameters in hemorrhagic and non-hemorrhagic polyps.Methods: In the present retrospective study, 28 individuals with hemorrha...

BACKGROUND Knowledge of the influence of age on laryngeal dimensions is essential for all practitioners whose interest is the pediatric airway. Early cadaver studies documented that the larynx is conically shaped, with the apex of the cone caudally positioned at the nondistensible cricoid cartilage. These dimensions change during childhood, as the larynx assumes a more cylindrical shape. The au...

Singing voice detection is essential for contentbased applications such as those involving melody extraction and singer identification. This article is concerned with the accurate detection of singing voice phrases in north Indian classical vocal music. The component sound sources in such music fit into a typical framework (voice, rhythm and drone). We have used this a-priori knowledge to enhan...

In this paper, we propose to identify the singers of popular songs using vibrato characteristics and high level musical knowledge of song structure. The proposed framework starts with a vocal detection process followed by a hypothesis test for the vocal/non-vocal verification. This method allows us to select vocal segments of high confidence for singer identification. From the selected vocal se...

PURPOSE The acoustic measure relative fundamental frequency (RFF) was investigated as a potential objective measure to track variations in vocal effort within and across individuals. METHOD Twelve speakers with healthy voices created purposeful modulations in their vocal effort during speech tasks. RFF and an aerodynamic measure of vocal effort, the ratio of sound pressure level to subglottal...
