Abstract:
Fundamental frequency (F0) has long been treated as the physical definition of "pitch" in phonetic analysis. But there have been many demonstrations that F0 is at best an approximation to pitch, both in production and in perception: pitch is not F0, and F0 is not pitch. Changes in the pitch involve many articulatory and acoustic covariates; pitch perception often deviates from what F0 analysis predicts; and in fact, quasi-periodic signals from a single voice source are often incompletely characterized by an attempt to define a single time-varying F0. In this paper, we find strong support for the existence of covariates for pitch in aspects of relatively coarse spectra, in which an overtone series is not available. Thus linear regression can predict the pitch of simple vocalizations, produced by an articulatory synthesizer or by human, from single frames of such coarse spectra. Across speakers, and in more complex vocalizations, our experiments indicate that the covariates are not quite so simple, though ... : Submitted to Interspeech 2022 ...
