Vocal Tract Latex package --------------------------- by Dr. Dimitrios Ververidis The manuscript related to this package can be found on PRACTex journal 2012/1 URL: http://dw.tug.org/pracjourn/2012-1/ververidis/ververidis.pdf Please cite as: "Dimitrios Ververidis, Daniel Schneider, and Joachim Koehler, "The vocal tract LATEX package," PracTeX journal, no 1, 2012." Package tested for Miktex 2.8 and 2.9 and Matlab 7.5 under Windows The software is licensed as FREE under APACHE 2.0 licence: http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html Using the package: -------------------- Examples 1st Example - Simple Figure from Latex compiling ------------------------------------------------- Create a figure in PS or PDF by compiling with latex the file: vtLatex_FigureDemo.tex 2nd Example - Animation from Latex compiling --------------------------------------------- Create an animation in PDF by compiling with latex the file: vtLatex_AnimationDemo.tex 3rd Example - Simple Figure or Animation compiling from Matlab -------------------------------------------------------------- Create a simple Figure or Animation by compiling from Matlab the function vtMainVisual.m as >> vtMainVisual(VocalTractVecToTime, SWPDForBMP) where 1. "VocalTractVecToTime" is the CELL of vocal set up through time. See the codebook of german phonemes in the VocalTract.sty. For Example VocalTractVecToTime = ... {[ 0.5, -2, 1 , -2 , 1, -1 , 0, 0, 0, 0], 'i' ; [ 0.5, -2, 1 , -2 , 0, 2 , 0, 0, 0, 0], 'y(\"u)' ; [-1 , -1, 1 , -2 , 1, -0.5, 0, 0, 0, 0], 'e' }; 2. "SWPDForBMP" is the string either 'bmp' or 'pdf' to define the output format. In case of 'bmp' the irfan view programm should be in current path. From IrfanView two files are needed to be in current directory 1. "i_view32.exe" and 2. "/plugins/Postscript.dll" Free download IrfanView from Irfan Skiljan, E-Mail: irfanview@gmx.net, http://www.irfanview.com 4th Example - Animation compiling from Matlab with phonemes as an input ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Create a PDF by compiling from Matlab e.g. >> vtQueryVisual('zats')
