PeriodGrad: Towards Pitch-Controllable Neural Vocoder Based on a Diffusion Probabilistic Model
Yukiya Hono, Kei Hashimoto, Yoshihiko Nankaku +1
This paper presents a neural vocoder based on a denoising diffusion probabilistic model (DDPM) incorporating explicit periodic signals as auxiliary conditioning signals. Recently,…
Singing voice synthesis based on frame-level sequence-to-sequence models considering vocal timing deviation
Miku Nishihara, Yukiya Hono, Kei Hashimoto +2
This paper proposes singing voice synthesis (SVS) based on frame-level sequence-to-sequence models considering vocal timing deviation. In SVS, it is essential to synchronize the ti…
Embedding a Differentiable Mel-cepstral Synthesis Filter to a Neural Speech Synthesis System
Takenori Yoshimura, Shinji Takaki, Kazuhiro Nakamura +5
This paper integrates a classic mel-cepstral synthesis filter into a modern neural speech synthesis system towards end-to-end controllable speech synthesis. Since the mel-cepstral…
Neural Sequence-to-Sequence Speech Synthesis Using a Hidden Semi-Markov Model Based Structured Attention Mechanism
Yoshihiko Nankaku, Kenta Sumiya, Takenori Yoshimura +4
This paper proposes a novel Sequence-to-Sequence (Seq2Seq) model integrating the structure of Hidden Semi-Markov Models (HSMMs) into its attention mechanism. In speech synthesis, i…
Sinsy: A Deep Neural Network-Based Singing Voice Synthesis System
Yukiya Hono, Kei Hashimoto, Keiichiro Oura +2
This paper presents Sinsy, a deep neural network (DNN)-based singing voice synthesis (SVS) system. In recent years, DNNs have been utilized in statistical parametric SVS systems, a…
PeriodNet: A non-autoregressive waveform generation model with a structure separating periodic and aperiodic components
Yukiya Hono, Shinji Takaki, Kei Hashimoto +3
We propose PeriodNet, a non-autoregressive (non-AR) waveform generation model with a new model structure for modeling periodic and aperiodic components in speech waveforms. The non…
