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

“…The 9-order linear prediction only preserves the basic shape of LP response amplitude spectrum of speech signal.When the order of LP is increased to the 15,the fitting degree of the signal is increased,and the zero and pole of LP is dense and the distribution of LP is closer to the unit circle.The 15th order LP compensates for the sacrifice of formant fitting accuracy caused by the 9th order linear fitting, which improves the formant extraction accuracy by 2.5%. (2) Using the threshold value under the constraint of digital resonance root value to determine the complex roots,the low frequency false roots generated by fundamental frequency harmonics and the false roots generated by formant harmonics is effectively filtered.The zeroes-poles of the LP polynomial are the complex roots corresponding to the formant peaks.In the view of the distribution of formant detection root values, the high-order LP root threshold constrained by digital formant root values can effectively filter the false roots generated by harmonic action of sound channel. …”
