Mermelstein (1967); Schroeder (1967) estimated the vocal tract transfer transfer function from tube models by looking into the anti-symmetric Fourier coefficients of the formants for open-close tubes. 50 years hence, our most important contribution is everyone measuring #VOT 🤦
Never understood the logic of prevoicing. Only makes sense if our perspective on voicing comes from languages with 2-way contrasts. Arguably, the burst is the vantage point for laryngeal contrasts. This could easily be amended if 4-way laryngeal contrasts provided the perspective
