Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleFujisaki’s Model of Thai’s Fundamental Frequency Contours with Environmental NoisesSuphattharachai Chomphan, Chutarat ChompunthProblem statement: An important human speech feature is the fundamental frequency (F0) contour which represents the speech prosody. It indicates the naturalness and intelligibility of the speech. Modeling of fundamental frequency contour was an essential procedure in the natural speech processing. In speech communication, environmental noise plays an essential role in damaging the digital communication quality. The study of effects … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 28 Jun 2012 · 7,284 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEffects of Environmental Noises on Fundamental Frequency Contours of Thai DialectsSuphattharachai Chomphan, Chutarat ChompunthProblem statement: Fundamental Frequency (F0) is an important speech feature defining the human speech prosody. It is the resultant of the vibration of human’s vocal chords in speech production. In Thai, there are four main dialects spoken by Thai people residing in four core region including central, north, northeast and south regions. Environmental noises are also playing an important role … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 9 Mar 2012 · 7,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleModeling of Fundamental Frequency Contour of Thai Expressive Speech using Fujisaki's Model and Structural ModelSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In spontaneous speech communication, prosody is an important factor that must be taken into account, since the prosody effects on not only the naturalness but also the intelligibility of speech. Focusing on synthesis of Thai expressive speech, a number of systems has been developed for years. However, the expressive speech with various speaking styles has not been accomplished. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 9 Aug 2011 · 6,975 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAnalysis of Fundamental Frequency Contour of Coded Speech Based on Multi-Pulse Based Code Excited Linear Prediction AlgorithmSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In low-bit-rate speech communication, speech coding deteriorates the characteristics of the coded speech significantly. An important feature of the speech is the fundamental frequency contour which determines the pitch information of the speech. It has been known that pitch information is one of the core parameter of the multi-pulse based code excited linear prediction (MPCELP) speech coder. Therefore … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2011 · 6,459 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEffects of Noises on the Analysis of Fundamental Frequency Contours for Thai SpeechSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In speech communication, noises from surrounding environments affect the communication quality with various aspects. The received speech quality should be analyzed to see how the important noises reduce the speech quality so that we can eliminate them in an appropriate way. Approach: This study presents a study on the analysis of the noise effects on Thai speech. Four … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 6,827 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAnalytical Study on Fundamental Frequency Contours of Thai Tones using Tone-Geometrical ModelSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In tonal language speech; such as Thai, Mandarin and Vietnam, tone is an important feature of a syllable that must be taken into consideration, since tone is a supra-segmental feature in the speech prosody. Modeling of tone with high accuracy could enhance the quality of synthesized speech in the speech synthesis system. This study focuses on a model … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 7 Mar 2011 · 7,100 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleModeling of Fundamental Frequency Contours for Thai Dialects with Large Speech DatabaseSuphattharachai ChomphanIn four core regions of Thailand, there are four main dialects including central, north, northeast and south dialects. The prosody is significantly unique for each dialect. One important factor determining the prosody is the fundamental frequency. As a result, modeling of Fundamental frequency (F0) contour is very important for the natural speech processing. Even though there are many modeling techniques … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 20 Dec 2012 · 7,341 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleStructural Modeling of Fundamental Frequency contour for Thai TonesSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In Thai, tone is an essential feature of a prosodic syllable to identify the meanings of that syllable or that part of word. To generate the tonal speech with natural prosody, it is needed to manage the fundamental frequency (F0) of the speech appropriately. A successful approach of structural modeling from Mandarin Chinese has been adapted to model … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 25 Aug 2012 · 7,122 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEffects of Environmental Noises on Fundamental Frequency Contours of Thai Expressive SpeechSuphattharachai Chomphan, Chutarat ChompunthProblem statement: The expressive speech of Thai had been studied for a short period of time. An important feature of speech was fundamental frequency (F0) which defines the human speech prosody. It could be used to distinguish the difference between several types of expressive speech. The environmental noises affect the F0 contour for Thai dialects as concluded in the previous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 28 Jun 2012 · 6,907 accessesView PDFCite
