Abstract

In this paper, measure of change the speech analysis parameter by stimulating ears blood points corresponding to cardiac. To do this, we collected voice of before and after a stimulation corresponding points to ears to select normal heart having 10 subjects. We analyzed changes before and after corresponding points to ear in cardiac to apply Jitter, the second zFormant Frequency Bandwidths related to heart of elements of voice analysis. As a result of us experiment, we were able to analyze correlation of voice with cardiac according to corresponding points to ears decreased values of Jitter, the Second Formant Frequency Bandwidths of 90% of subjects. Finally, the effectiveness of proposed method is demonstrated by several experiments.

본 논문에서는 심장에 해당하는 이(耳)혈 상응점을 자극하여 심장과 관련된 음성분석 요소의 변화를 측정하였다. 이를 위해 심장에 이상이 없는 피실험자 10명을 선정하고 심장에 해당하는 이혈 상응점을 자극하기 전과 후의 음성을 수집하였다. 실험은 음성분석 요소 중 심장과 관련된 Jitter와 2 Formant Frequency Bandwidths를 적용하여 심장 이혈 자극 전과 후의 변화를 측정, 분석하였다. 실험 결과 90%의 피실험자가 Jitter와 2 Formant Frequency Bandwidths 값이 감소하는 현상을 보였으며 이를 통해 이혈 자극에 따른 심장과 음성의 상관성을 분석할 수 있었다. 끝으로 실험에 의해 제안한 방법의 유용성을 입증하고자 한다.
