Abstract(in English) A robust method for tacking F0 trajectory as an initial estimate followed by a refinement procedure which is base on a temporally static instantaneous frequency is proposed. The proposed initial estimation method is based on a higher-order waveform symmetry measure which is computationally efficient and has finer temporal resolution. This proposal is aiming at analysing filled pause, which is frequently observed in spontaneous speech used in everyday situations. Instabilities of vocal fold vibration usually found in filled pauses, which make commonly used F0 extractors to fail, motivated this development of a new F0 extraction method.
