A Novel Algorithm Application in Vocal Signals Processing.

This study proposes an innovative application of the Goertzel Algorithm (GA) for the processing of vocal signals in dysphonia evaluation. Compared to the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) representing the gold standard analysis technique in this context, GA demonstrates higher efficiency in terms of processing time and memory usage, also showing an improved discrimination between healthy and pathological conditions. This suggests that GA-based approaches could enhance the reliability and efficiency of vocal signal analysis, thus supporting physicians in dysphonia research and clinical monitoring.
