The harmonic structure can be easily recognized in time-frequency representation of speech signals in adverse environment. The harmonicity is a measure of the completeness of a harmonic structure. This paper presents a new harmonic structure measure that extends the conventional harmonicity to a set of harmonicities. They are expressed in terms of the grid harmonicity; the temporal harmonicity; the segment-spectral harmonicity; and the segmental harmonicity. The grid harmonicity measures the completeness of individual harmonics in each frame. The grid harmonicities in a frame are summed up to form a temporal harmonicity for representing the strength of harmonicity. The segment-spectral harmonicity; computed by summing specific grid harmonicity over a segment; evaluates the integrity of individual harmonics across a segment. The segmental harmonicity evaluates the total strength of harmonic structure within a segment. This set of harmonicities is available for a systematic analysis of the harmonic structure and effective to several speech processing tasks. The applications to speech distortion analysis; robust fundamental frequency estimation; robust voicing detection; and speech enhancement are demonstrated. © 2006 Acoustical Society of America;
