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...

Feature Selection for Improved Phone Duration Modeling of Greek Emotional Speech
In the present work we address the problem of phone duration modeling for the needs of emotional speech synthesis. Specifically, relying on ten well known machine learning techniqu...

Building transcribed speech corpora quickly and cheaply for many languages
We present a system for quickly and cheaply building transcribed speech corpora containing utterances from many speakers in a variety of acoustic conditions. The system consists o...

Measuring basic tempo across languages and some implications for speech rhythm
Basic language-inherent tempo cannot be isolated by the current metrics of speech rhythm. Here we propose the number of syllables per intonation unit as an appropriate measure, al...

Canonical state models for automatic speech recognition
Current speech recognition systems are often based on HMMs with state-clustered Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs) to represent the context dependent output distributions. Though high...
