چکیده انگلیسی
The estimation of glottal closure instants (GCIs) plays a vital role in several glottal synchronous applications, and may not be restricted to clean speech. This necessitates the development of a GCI estimation algorithm that performs as well on degraded speech as on clean speech. Degradations in speech may be in the form of spectral or temporal perturbations. This could result in several spurious discontinuities, as in noisy speech, excitations that are not well-defined, as in band-limited speech, aperiodicity and variations in amplitude, as in pathological speech, thereby making the task of identifying GCIs more challenging. In this regard, a conditional group-delay/phase-difference-based (PD) algorithm that was initially proposed for use on clean speech is extended to operate on degraded speech, specifically telephone, noisy, and pathological speech. The performance of this algorithm is compared with six existing algorithms, in terms of identification, false alarm, and miss rates, and identification accuracy. It is observed that the PD algorithm is robust to degradations in speech and performs better than or on par with existing algorithms in all cases considered. Further, it is also observed that unlike existing algorithms, the PD algorithm scarcely estimates GCIs in non-voiced regions and this is verified in terms of a new metric proposed in the paper, namely, the spurious instants rate in non-voiced regions.
