The present work explores the acoustic characteristics of articulatory deviations near g(lottis) landmarks to derive the correlates of cleft lip and palate speech intelligibility. The speech region around the g landmark is used to compute two different acoustic features, namely, two-dimensional discrete cosine transform based joint spectro-temporal features, and Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients. Sentence-specific acoustic models are built using these features extracted from the normal speakers' group. The mean log-likelihood score for each test utterance is computed and tested as the acoustic correlates of intelligibility. Derived intelligibility measure shows significant correlation (rho = 0.78, p < 0.001) with the perceptual ratings.
