Currently, the statistical framework based on Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) plays a relevant role in speech synthesis, while voice conversion systems based on Gaussian Mixture Model...
The length of the room impulse response characterizing the acoustic path between speaker and microphone is significantly larger than the length of the analysis window used for fea...
This paper outlines ProSynth, an approach to speech synthesis which takes a rich linguistic structure as central to the generation of natural-sounding speech. We start from the as...
