Wavelet applications for Larynx Disorders Diagnosis
Introduction What is Larynx?
Speech How do we speak? Speaking is made up of two mechanical actions called Phonation and Articulation
Common Larynx Disorders • Muscle Tension Dysphonia (MTD) • Vocal Tremor • Vocal Fold Paralysis
Other Common Disorders • Laryngeal Cancer • Edema • Nodules • Polyp
Voice Characteristics • Amplitude • Frequency • Energy • Entropy • Fractal Dimension
Amplitude • Maximum amplitude to Minimum amplitude ratio
Energy Total Energy Energy in Frames
Energy Application Total Energy • Noise Test • Signal to Noise Ratio( Future Use) Energy in Frames • Recording Environment Characteristics
Entropy • Shannon Entropy • p-Norm Entropy • log-Energy Entropy ✓
Fractal Dimension N∆ is the number of times the signal sign is changed.
Signal The main signal is a 3-second .wav file in which the user simply says “a”
Basic Process 1- Chopping the Signal between two points 2- Segmenting the Chopped Signal

Wavelets What are Wavelets? Wavelets are mathematical functions that cut up data into different frequency components, and then study each component with a resolution matched to its scale.
Wavelet Packets Wavelet packets are particular linear combinations of wavelets.
