Hi All, I write some software that discriminate voices of adults children and baies. I use a simple pitch tracker that filters the base band and looks for a zero crossing to identify the pitch. This works fine and depending on the pitch length it decides whther its an adult a child or a baby voice. I'm looking for a way to improve the algorithm by checking the formants or other voice paramters. Can someone advice with ideas or references? Thanks In Advance I. Lesher
