An utterance comparison model for speaker clustering using factor analysis
We propose a novel utterance comparison model based on probability theory and factor analysis that computes the likelihood of two speech utterances originating from the same speak...

Vocal attractiveness of statistical speech synthesisers
Our previous analysis of speaker-adaptive HMM-based speech synthesis methods suggested that there are two possible reasons why average voices can obtain higher subjective scores t...

Unsupervised knowledge acquisition for Extracting Named Entities from speech
This paper presents a Named Entity Recognition (NER) method dedicated to process speech transcriptions. The main principle behind this method is to collect in an unsupervised way ...

Modeling Natural Sounds with Modulation Cascade Processes
Natural sounds are structured on many time-scales. A typical segment of speech, for example, contains features that span four orders of magnitude: Sentences (∼1 s); phonemes (...

HMM-based sequence-to-frame mapping for voice conversion
Voice conversion can be reduced to a problem to find a transformation function between the corresponding speech sequences of two speakers. Perhaps the most voice conversions meth...
