Formant Tracking & Estimation

How to use:

For vowel formant estimation call the main script in a terminal with the wav file, formant output filename and the vowel begin and end times

Ex: $ python formants.py Example.wav examplePredictions --begin 1.2 --end 1.3

For formant tracking just call the script with the wav file and output filename and it will return the formants for the whole wav file every 10 ms

Ex: $ python formants.py Example.wav examplePredictions

Installation instructions

Download the code.

Dependencies: Run these lines in a terminal to install everything necessary for feature extraction.

sudo apt-get install python-numpy python-scipy python-nose python-pip

sudo pip install scikits.talkbox

Next for the installation of Torch for loading the models run this.

git clone https://github.com/torch/distro.git ~/torch --recursive

cd ~/torch; bash install-deps;

./install.sh

recommended use the pre-trained estimation and tracking models.

The Estimation model can be downloaded here and because of size constraints the Tracking model can be abtained by download from this link
