It is well known that the classical linear predictive model for speech fails to take into account the quasi-periodic nature of the glottal flow typical of voiced speech. In this ...
The autoregressive HMM has been shown to provide efficient parameter estimation and high-quality synthesis, but in previous experiments decision trees derived from a non-autoregre...
This paper presents a novel method of enhancing esophageal speech using statistical voice conversion. Esophageal speech is one of the alternative speaking methods for laryngectome...
Abstract. Voice quality has been defined as the characteristic auditory colouring of an individual's voice, derived from a variety of laryngeal and supralaryngeal features and...
— In this paper we present a method of sequential speech enhancement, where we infer clean speech signal using a Rao-Blackwellized particle filter (RBPF), given a noisecontamina...
