초록
Laryngeal diseases cause significant changes in the quality of speech production. Automatic detection of laryngeal diseases by voice is attractive because of its nonintrusive nature. In this paper, we apply speech recognition techniques to detection of laryngeal cancer, and investigate which feature parameters and classification methods are appropriate for this purpose. Linear Predictive Cepstral Coefficients (LPCC) and Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) are examined as feature parameters, and parameters reflecting the periodicity of speech and its perturbation are also considered. As for classifier, multilayer perceptron neural networks and Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM) are employed. According to our experiments, higher order LPCC with the periodic information parameters yields the best performance.
