SPSC3001 - Hearing Sciences, Audiology and Speech Perception

Outline (more details can be found on the Life Sciences Faculty Courses Database)

This course aims to give an understanding of the processes involved in the perception of speech by human listeners with normal and with impaired hearing. It informs about hearing impairment by introducing the principles and techniques of clinical audiology and provides information about current speech and hearing research and technology.

ESECTION - Speech signal cross-sections

ESection is a free program for calculating and displaying spectral and other related analyses of sections of a speech signal. It can be used to demonstrate the different spectral properties of elements of speech. It can also calculate an LPC spectrum, autocorrelation and cepstrum analyses, and can display the signal as a waveform or as a spectrogram. It automatically finds formant and fundamental frequency values.

ESYNTH - Harmonic analysis/synthesis teaching tool

ESynth is a free program designed to explain the harmonic analysis and synthesis of signals. With ESynth you can create signals by adding together individual sinusoidal waveforms (sinewaves) and study the resulting waveform and spectrum. You can also perform an analysis of an input waveform, to see how a given sound can be represented in terms of a sum of sinewaves.
