Speech fundamental period estimation by a novel parallel processing method
Ian Spencer Howard · 1987
The algorithm described here is a time domein speech fundamental period estimator.Its operation involves filtering the speech with a filterbank.The filterbank outputs are then represented in terms of positive-going zero-crossing locations and their envelopes.Finally the period epoch marker locations are "optimally" selected.The algorithm is campered with a reference based on the output of a laryngograph.
