This study introduces phonetography, a 3D computer-assisted graph, to analyze voice parameters. Phonetography reveals distinct voice patterns in healthy individuals and those with hyperfunctional dysphonia, linking pitch, sound pressure level, and voice duration.

Area of Science:

  • Speech and Hearing Sciences
  • Acoustics
  • Biomedical Engineering

Context:

  • Clinical voice assessments typically measure fundamental frequency (pitch), sound pressure levels (SPL), and voice duration independently.
  • Existing methods lack a unified approach to visualize the complex interplay between these crucial voice parameters.
  • Hyperfunctional dysphonia presents challenges in voice production, necessitating advanced diagnostic tools.

Purpose:

  • To integrate the measurement of pitch, sound pressure level, and voice duration into a single, comprehensive analysis.
  • To develop a novel computer-assisted graphical representation, termed "phonetography," for visualizing voice parameter relationships.
  • To investigate the relationship between voice duration at soft (piano) versus loud (forte) levels across different pitches.

Summary:

Related Experiment Videos

  • A three-dimensional (3D) wireframe phonogram was constructed using SPL profiles to represent voice parameters.
  • Phonetography revealed three typical 3D phonogram patterns based on the ratio of piano to forte voice duration.
  • Healthy volunteers exhibited varied piano/forte duration relationships, while all patients with hyperfunctional dysphonia showed longer forte durations.

Impact:

  • Phonetography offers a valuable tool for a more holistic understanding of voice production.
  • The technique provides new insights into the parametric relationships governing voice quality and function.
  • This visualization method can aid in the diagnosis and understanding of voice disorders like hyperfunctional dysphonia.
