Abstract(in English) Because of the similarities between snore and speech, the conventional techniques for speech analysis has been used to evaluate the snore sound. In this paper we explore the differences between snore and vowel in the harmonic-component region. We propose a method to distinguish between two based on the harmonic-component region conveniently. Working on the clinical snore and volunteer's vowel, the effectiveness of proposed method is investigated.
