Automatic glottis localization and segmentation in stroboscopic videos

About

In speech production, the vocal folds play a crucial role in modulating airflow from the lungs through their quasiperiodic vibrations. Between the vocal folds lies a narrow opening, known as the glottis, which allows air to pass through the trachea. Changes in the shape or muscular properties of the vocal folds alter the glottal opening, leading to variations in voice quality, such as hoarseness and dysphonia. Many of these conditions result in an incomplete closure of the glottis during voice production, a phenomenon referred to as a glottic chink. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) typically visualize the glottic chink using endoscopic or stroboscopic video. This project aims to automate the localization and segmentation of the glottis in stroboscopic videos.
