Abstract

Clinical assessment of phonatory skills and laryngeal abnormalities would be facilitated ff a method of relating laryngeal muscular control and glottal configuration to glottal waveforms could be found. A computer model of the vocal folds, described earlier, which uses control parameters closely related to laryngeal muscular contractions, and which allows for sufficient flexibility in tissue properties and configuration, has been used to generate prototype waveforms of glottal transconductance and glottal volume velocity. The relationship between model control parameters and the resultant waveforms is determined by multiple regression. Success in predicting model control parameters from waveform parameters is demonstrated, and the applicability of this method to clinical situations is discussed.
