Eigenresiduals for improved Parametric Speech Synthesis
Thomas Drugman, Geoffrey Wilfart, Thierry Dutoit
Statistical parametric speech synthesizers have recently shown their ability to produce natural-sounding and flexible voices. Unfortunately the delivered quality suffers from a typ…
Using a Pitch-Synchronous Residual Codebook for Hybrid HMM/Frame Selection Speech Synthesis
Thomas Drugman, Alexis Moinet, Thierry Dutoit +1
This paper proposes a method to improve the quality delivered by statistical parametric speech synthesizers. For this, we use a codebook of pitch-synchronous residual frames, so as…
A Deterministic plus Stochastic Model of the Residual Signal for Improved Parametric Speech Synthesis
Thomas Drugman, Geoffrey Wilfart, Thierry Dutoit
Speech generated by parametric synthesizers generally suffers from a typical buzziness, similar to what was encountered in old LPC-like vocoders. In order to alleviate this problem…
