COMPARISON OF TECHNIQUES FOR FUNDAMENTAL FREQUENCY AND VOICING DECISION ESTIMATION

E. Mousset, WA AINSWORTH, JAR FONOLLOSA · 2024

in this paper.we are intuested in the comparison of several kinds of trteIhods for fundamental frequency estimation and GCl (Giottal Closure instant) daection.These methods operate in various domains (time, frequencyor joint time-frequency domains).Their performanm have been compared for both fundamental frequency estimation and voicing decision tasks as well as GCl detection.where applicable.This comparison was designed to be as unbiased as posible.so as to re ect the intrinsic propane: of each method.A method based on a "Born-laden kernel bilinear lime-frequency representation of speech signals achieves the best performance in terms of GCl detection accuracy but is not as robust to inta~sputker variability as tho SlIl' algorithm.An auditory model.which has been applied on the same data in a previous study.has been shown to compare favourany to other methods (such as SET) in advase noisy conditions only.
