Distribution augmentation for low-resource expressive text-to-speech
Mateusz Lajszczak, Animesh Prasad, Arent van Korlaar +8
This paper presents a novel data augmentation technique for text-to-speech (TTS), that allows to generate new (text, audio) training examples without requiring any additional data.…
Formant Tracking Using Quasi-Closed Phase Forward-Backward Linear Prediction Analysis and Deep Neural Networks
Dhananjaya Gowda, Bajibabu Bollepalli, Sudarsana Reddy Kadiri +1
Formant tracking is investigated in this study by using trackers based on dynamic programming (DP) and deep neural nets (DNNs). Using the DP approach, six formant estimation method…
Multi-Scale Spectrogram Modelling for Neural Text-to-Speech
Ammar Abbas, Bajibabu Bollepalli, Alexis Moinet +6
We propose a novel Multi-Scale Spectrogram (MSS) modelling approach to synthesise speech with an improved coarse and fine-grained prosody. We present a generic multi-scale spectrog…
GELP: GAN-Excited Linear Prediction for Speech Synthesis from Mel-spectrogram
Lauri Juvela, Bajibabu Bollepalli, Junichi Yamagishi +1
Recent advances in neural network -based text-to-speech have reached human level naturalness in synthetic speech. The present sequence-to-sequence models can directly map text to m…
Generative adversarial network-based glottal waveform model for statistical parametric speech synthesis
Bajibabu Bollepalli, Lauri Juvela, Paavo Alku
Recent studies have shown that text-to-speech synthesis quality can be improved by using glottal vocoding. This refers to vocoders that parameterize speech into two parts, the glot…
Waveform generation for text-to-speech synthesis using pitch-synchronous multi-scale generative adversarial networks
Lauri Juvela, Bajibabu Bollepalli, Junichi Yamagishi +1
The state-of-the-art in text-to-speech synthesis has recently improved considerably due to novel neural waveform generation methods, such as WaveNet. However, these methods suffer…
