Research on formant estimation algorithm for high order optimal LPC root value screening by Hua LONG, Shumeng SU

“…Methods: The value of LP order is increased to improve the fitting degree of LP system spectrum of speech signal.The calculation precision of formant frequency of speech signal is analyzed in different order,and the root value of linear system with higher linear peak fitting precision is obtained.A speech digital resonance model is used to constrain the root amplitude range of the formant, and the number of false roots is reduced by matching the root amplitude of the order to filter the root values of the linear system.Combined with power weighting,the main spectral components of the signal are weighted. …”
