Two methods for estimating the vocal-tract length equivalent to the homogeneous acoustic tube length are investigated. One method is based on calculating the tract length from the difference between the frequencies of the adjacent local spectral maxima, which exceed 4 kHz. In the other method, the vocal-tract length is calculated according to the average frequency of the second formant determined by the frequencies of first three formants. In addition, various variants of analysis are discussed irrespective of the context and with allowance for known vowels. The probability that the speaker gender is correctly recognized via two methods is about 13%, and its value is almost independent of the knowledge of the context. The probabilities that male and female voices are correctly recognized according to the difference of higher formants are, respectively, 31 and 25.5% regardless of the context and 37 and 31% with allowance for it. The probabilities of correct recognition of male and female voices reach to 27 and 21.5%, respectively, if context-independent recognition is performed from the average frequency of the second formant and 43 and 35.5% after context-dependent recognition with the known vowel type.
