| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research project, three-dimensional observation of vocal fold vibrations and analysis of parameters useful for profiling of vocal dynamics have been realized. Three-dimensional observation of vocal fold vibrations has been carried out by using a newly developed stereo-endoscope and a new stereo-matching method for stereographic high-speed images of vocal fold vibrations using SAD method. These new device and method developed in this project were used to analyze superior-inferior displacement of vocal folds during phonation in vivo. As a basic study for profiling vocal dynamics, we analyzed Oq (open quotient) which are considered to totally reflects kinematical tension of laryngeal muscles for systematic vocal tasks with various fundamental frequencies, intensities, and vocal styles. Several different Oq were defined based on indirect and direct observation data, and compared to acoustical parameters, and optimal definition for Oq were clarified.
