Reference Values

If you already have a collection of new-fave or legacy-fave results, and would like to use these formant values as a reference to cut down on formant tracking errors, you can pass them to a fave-extract subcommand. The option to use will depend on the kind of reference values you are using.

Point Values Reference

If you have a collection of vowel formant point values, either extracted by new-fave or legacy-fave, you can point the fave-extract subcommands at this corpus with the --points-reference option.

# command-line
fave-extract audio-textgrid \
    speaker1.wav speaker1.TextGrid \
    --points-reference fave_results

Param Reference

If you have a collection of vowel formant DCT smoothing parameters, you can point the fave-extract subcommands at this corpus with the --param-reference option.

# command-line
fave-extract audio-textgrid \
    speaker1.wav speaker1.TextGrid \
    --param-reference fave_results

Log-Param Reference

If you have a collection of vowel log(formant) DCT smoothing parameters, you can point the fave-extract subcommands at this corpus with the --logparam-reference option.

# command-line
fave-extract audio-textgrid \
    speaker1.wav speaker1.TextGrid \
    --logparam-reference fave_results
