Neurogenic voice disorders (NVDs) are caused by damage or malfunction of the central or peripheral nervous system that controls vocal fold movement. In this paper, we investigate the potential of the Fisher vector (FV) encoding in automatic detection...

The electroglottographic (EGG) signal offers a non-invasive approach to analyze phonation. It is known, if not obvious, that the onset of vocal fold contacting has a substantial effect on how the vocal folds vibrate and on the quality of the voice. G...

Vocal intensity is quantified by sound pressure level (SPL). The SPL can be measured by either using a sound level meter or by comparing the energy of the recorded speech signal with the energy of the recorded calibration tone of a known SPL. Neither...
OBJECTIVES: Voice disorder is characterized by disruptions in voice quality caused by issues in vocal fold vibration during phonation. The study explored the application of machine learning, based on the Random Forest (RF) and Decision Tree (DT) mode...

The deep learning-based electrolaryngeal (EL) voice conversion methods have achieved good results in non-tonal languages. However, the effectiveness in tonal languages, such as Mandarin Chinese (Mandarin), remains suboptimal. The reason may be that t...
Decoding speech envelopes from electroencephalogram (EEG) signals holds potential as a research tool for objectively assessing auditory processing, which could contribute to future developments in hearing loss diagnosis. However, current methods stru...

Acoustic analysis of the voice, as an objective, quantitative, non-invasive and reproducible method for the evaluation of voice quality, can be used to detect and analyze the acoustic characteristics of normal, artistic or pathological voice. With th...
Despite great advances in hearing-aid technology, users still experience problems with noise in windy environments. The potential benefits of using a deep recurrent neural network (RNN) for reducing wind noise were assessed. The RNN was trained using...
