Proposal of protocols for speech materials acquisition and presentation assisted by tools based on structured test signals

We propose protocols for acquiring speech materials, making them reusable for future investigations, and presenting them for subjective experiments. We also provide means to evaluate existing speech materials' compatibility with target applications. We built these protocols and tools based on structured test signals and analysis methods, including a new family of the Time-Stretched Pulse (TSP). Over a billion times more powerful computational (including software development) resources than a half-century ago enabled these protocols and tools to be accessible to under-resourced environments.
