Acoustic analysis is the study of sound waves and their properties, particularly in the context of human speech and language. This research area involves analyzing the physical characteristics of sound, such as frequency, intensity, and duration, in order to better understand how sounds are produced, perceived, and processed by the human auditory system. Acoustic analysis is commonly used in fields such as linguistics, speech pathology, and communication sciences to study speech production, speech disorders, and language development. Researchers in this area often use specialized equipment, such as spectrograms and acoustic software, to capture and analyze sound data for the purpose of furthering our understanding of human communication.
