Researchers at Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Guwahati have achieved a significant breakthrough in the field of speech technology with the development and patenting of 'LOQU', a novel method to generate human speech signals directly from vocal cord vibration signals. "Speech production begins with airflow from the lungs through the windpipe, facilitated by the larynx or voice box, which acts as a conduit between the throat and windpipe. Inside the larynx are the vocal cords or vocal folds, regulated by the glottis, controlling airflow between the lungs and mouth. The voice box adjusts the space between vocal folds to create sounds, which travel through the vocal tract, modulating in volume and pitch to form 'voice'," IIT Guwahati said in a statement. "During speech, vocal folds vibrate due to intrinsic laryngeal muscle movement. In some cases, like mutism from apraxia, individuals may have normal vocal fold vibration without sound production due to coordination issues in tongue or throat muscles essential for speech," it said. Under the guidance of Prof. Samarendra Dandapat, Department of Electronics and Electrical Engineering, and led by Dr. L.N. Sharma of IIT Guwahati, the team, including Pharvesh Salman Choudhary, Sibasis Sahu, Debasis Jyotishi, Moirangthem James Singh, Samarjeet Das, and Yengkhom Omesh Singh, has created 'LOQU'. Derived from the Latin word for 'To speak or talk', this technology captures vocal fold movement without invasive procedures, utilizing sensors placed over the throat. This innovative approach allows for the reconstruction of speech signals from vocal cord vibrations, offering promising applications for speech-impaired individuals and medical settings. "The reconstructed speech signals have been found to be clear and comparable to traditional speech in extensive comparison tests. These results hold significant potential for individuals struggling with speech impairments, offering a viable alternative to traditional microphones, and enhancing speech clarity," the institute added. #IITGuwahati #SpeechReconstructionTechnolo

IIT Guwahati researchers have taken a great step forward in the field of speech recognition. Created a method of generating speech directly from larynx vibration signals. Its name is 'LOQU'. It means 'to speak' in Latin. It is noteworthy that the sensors in it sense the movements of the vocal cords from outside the throat and create speech based on them. It is expected to be very useful in environments such as hospitals for people who have difficulty speaking and those who stutter. We talk lightly but there is a big story behind it. The process of speech begins with air flowing from the lungs through the trachea and moving the larynx. The vibrations of the vocal cords in the larynx play a vital role in this. These are controlled by the glottis, which controls the flow of air between the lungs and the mouth. All these work in harmony. The larynx adjusts the spaces between the vocal cords as needed to produce sounds. These travel through the vocal tract and come out in the form of words, changing intensity and pitch. Sometimes even though the larynx vibrates, speech may not be produced due to lack of coordination of the tongue and throat muscles. LOQU can be very useful for those who face difficulty in speaking due to similar reasons. It is hoped that the clarity of speech produced by this will be an alternative to conventional technologies such as microphones. It is noteworthy that the cost of this experimentally designed device is less than Rs.2 thousand. Mass production can be made cheaper. #IITGuwahati #SpeechRecognition #Innovation #LOQU

The Research & Innovation, BITS Pilani team is excited to share a new publication by Prof. Shishir Kumar Pandey and other author published in Physical Review Journal. 🎉   𝐓𝐢𝐭le: Computational exploration of a viable route to the Kitaev-quantum spin liquid phase in monolayer OsCl3. Highlights: In this computational study, we explore a viable route to access the Kitaev-quantum spin liquid (QSL) state in a recently synthesized monolayer of a so-called spin-orbit assisted Mott insulator OsCl3. In addition to other magnetic ground states in different regions, a substantial region of small 𝐽H/𝑈 in our Hubbard 𝑈–Hund's 𝐽H quantum phase diagram, obtained by combining second-order perturbation and pseudo-fermion functional renormalization group calculations, hosts Kitaev-QSL phase. Only the first neighbor Kitaev interaction of a smaller magnitude, nearly independent of the choice of 𝑈, is obtained in this region. Experimental tuning of the single parameter 𝐽H to access the QSL state can purportedly be achieved with epitaxial strain in advanced crystal growth techniques. Furthermore, negligibly small farther neighbor interactions appear as a distinct feature of monolayer OsCl3, suggesting this material to be a better candidate for the exploration of the possible Kitaev-QSL state than previously proposed materials.   𝐃𝐎𝐈: https://lnkd.in/gZRxFCsy Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani | BITS Pilani Dubai Campus| BITS Pilani, Hyderabad Campus | Research & Innovation, BITS Pilani| Qiangqiang Gu  | Shishir Kumar Pandey  | Yihao Lin | Sanket Goel | Surender Mohan | Vishwajeet Parihar | Arpita Sharma | Praloy Mondal | Apurva Vunnava | Dr. Radhika Vangala | Dr. Juhi Kumari | Navya Debbad | Dr. Trupti Sharma
