Cross-lingual voice transformation is challenging when source language (L1) and target language (L2) are very different in corresponding phonetics and prosodies. We propose a fram...
The recently developed i-vector framework for speaker recognition has set a new performance standard in the research field. An i-vector is a compact representation of a speaker u...
This paper presents a very low bit-rate F0 coding technique for speaker-dependent phonetic vocoder based on hidden Markov model (HMM) using quantized F0 context. In the proposed t...
Gaussian mixture models (GMMs) are commonly used to model the spectral distribution of speech signals for text-independent speaker verification. Mean vectors of the GMM, used in c...
