Analyzing and Improving Speaker Similarity Assessment for Speech Synthesis
Marc-André Carbonneau, Benjamin van Niekerk, Hugo Seuté +3
Modeling voice identity is challenging due to its multifaceted nature. In generative speech systems, identity is often assessed using automatic speaker verification (ASV) embedding…
LinearVC: Linear transformations of self-supervised features through the lens of voice conversion
Herman Kamper, Benjamin van Niekerk, Julian Zaïdi +1
We introduce LinearVC, a simple voice conversion method that sheds light on the structure of self-supervised representations. First, we show that simple linear transformations of s…
Geometry-Aware Texture Generation for 3D Head Modeling with Artist-driven Control
Amin Fadaeinejad, Abdallah Dib, Luiz Gustavo Hafemann +6
Creating realistic 3D head assets for virtual characters that match a precise artistic vision remains labor-intensive. We present a novel framework that streamlines this process by…
