Interactions between speech coders and disordered speech
V. Parsa,D. G. Jamieson +1 more
TLDR
Ratings of speech coder performance indicated that the listeners are less sensitive to coder-induced distortions with abnormal speech samples, and that MELP, FS1015 LPC and to a certain extent FS1016 CELP exhibited degraded performance with speech samples from disordered talkers.About:

Speech in Alzheimer's Disease: Can Temporal and Acoustic Parameters Discriminate Dementia?
Juan José García Meilán,Francisco Martínez-Sánchez,Juan Carro,Dolores E. López,Lymarie Millian-Morell,José M. Arana +5 more
TL;DR: These measures offer a sensitive method of assessing spontaneous speech output in AD and they discriminate well between people with AD and healthy older adults, and it could be used as a dependent measure in clinical trials.

Identification of Voice Disorders Using Long-Time Features and Support Vector Machine With Different Feature Reduction Methods
TL;DR: An extensive study in the diagnosis of voice disorders using the statistical pattern recognition techniques is followed and a combined scheme of feature reduction methods followed by pattern recognition methods to classify voice disorders is proposed.

Automatic detection of vocal fold paralysis and edema
TL;DR: A combined scheme of linear prediction analysis for feature extraction along with linear projection methods for feature reduction followed by known pattern recognition methods on the purpose of discriminating between normal and pathological voice samples is proposed.

Linear classifier with reject option for the detection of vocal fold paralysis and vocal fold edema
TL;DR: The reject option is shown to yield statistically significant improvements in the accuracy of detecting the voice pathologies under study and the optimal operating point of the linear classifier is specified with and without reject option.

A 2dvEv- bit distributed algorithm for the directed Euler trail problem
Wen-Huei Chen,Chuan Yi Tang +1 more
TL;DR: The algorithm can be used as a building block for solving other distributed graph problems, and can be slightly modified to run on a strongly-connected diagraph for generating the existent Euler trail or to report that no Euler trails exist.

Analysis, synthesis, and perception of voice quality variations among female and male talkers
Dennis H. Klatt,Laura C. Klatt +1 more
TL;DR: Perceptual validation of the relative importance of acoustic cues for signaling a breathy voice quality has been accomplished using a new voicing source model for synthesis of more natural male and female voices.

Differential Diagnostic Patterns of Dysarthria
TL;DR: Thirty-second speech samples were studied of at least 30 patients in each of 7 discrete neurologic groups, each patient unequivocally diagnosed as being a representative of his diagnostic group, leading to results leading to these conclusions.
