Abstract

Mathematical models of the phase function and its parameters in speech-signal analysis problems have been investigated. The phase spectrum of a speech signal has been calculated using the Hilbert transform of signals at the output of a gammatone filterbank. Short- and long-term modulations of the linear phase component and phase derivatives with respect to frequency and time, and mixed derivative have been considered. The method for vowel segmentation using aggregation of the correlation coefficients of the phase parameters is described. Experiments on estimating the formant and pitch frequencies and the glottal opening and closure instants have been performed.
