AVQI & ABI Calculator

Multiparametric voice quality indices

Measures

AVQI (Acoustic Voice Quality Index): Combines 6 acoustic parameters into a single validated score for overall dysphonia severity.

  • CPPS - Smoothed Cepstral Peak Prominence
  • HNR - Harmonics-to-Noise Ratio
  • Shimmer Local - Cycle-to-cycle amplitude variation
  • Shimmer dB - Amplitude variation in dB
  • Slope - Spectral slope measure
  • Tilt - Long-term average spectrum tilt

ABI (Acoustic Breathiness Index): Combines 9 acoustic parameters specifically designed to quantify breathiness perception.

  • CPPS, Shimmer dB, Shimmer Local
  • Jitter Local - Cycle-to-cycle period variation
  • GNE (Glottal-to-Noise Excitation ratio) max
  • HFNO - High-Frequency Noise Offset
  • HNRD - HNR Difference
  • H1-H2 - First vs. second harmonic difference
  • PSD - Period Standard Deviation
