Voice Filter: Few-shot text-to-speech speaker adaptation using voice conversion as a post-processing module
Adam Gabryś, Goeric Huybrechts, Manuel Sam Ribeiro +6
State-of-the-art text-to-speech (TTS) systems require several hours of recorded speech data to generate high-quality synthetic speech. When using reduced amounts of training data,…
Cross-speaker style transfer for text-to-speech using data augmentation
Manuel Sam Ribeiro, Julian Roth, Giulia Comini +3
We address the problem of cross-speaker style transfer for text-to-speech (TTS) using data augmentation via voice conversion. We assume to have a corpus of neutral non-expressive d…
Non-Autoregressive TTS with Explicit Duration Modelling for Low-Resource Highly Expressive Speech
Raahil Shah, Kamil Pokora, Abdelhamid Ezzerg +5
Whilst recent neural text-to-speech (TTS) approaches produce high-quality speech, they typically require a large amount of recordings from the target speaker. In previous work, a 3…
EmoCat: Language-agnostic Emotional Voice Conversion
Bastian Schnell, Goeric Huybrechts, Bartek Perz +2
Emotional voice conversion models adapt the emotion in speech without changing the speaker identity or linguistic content. They are less data hungry than text-to-speech models and…
Low-resource expressive text-to-speech using data augmentation
Goeric Huybrechts, Thomas Merritt, Giulia Comini +3
While recent neural text-to-speech (TTS) systems perform remarkably well, they typically require a substantial amount of recordings from the target speaker reading in the desired s…
Voice Conversion for Whispered Speech Synthesis
Marius Cotescu, Thomas Drugman, Goeric Huybrechts +2
We present an approach to synthesize whisper by applying a handcrafted signal processing recipe and Voice Conversion (VC) techniques to convert normally phonated speech to whispere…
