HiFi-Glot: High-Fidelity Neural Formant Synthesis with Differentiable Resonant Filters

Yicheng Gu, Pablo Pérez Zarazaga, Chaoren Wang +4

Formant synthesis aims to generate speech with controllable formant structures, enabling precise control of vocal resonance and phonetic features. However, while existing formant s…

PRODIS -- a speech database and a phoneme-based language model for the study of predictability effects in Polish

Zofia Malisz, Jan Foremski, Małgorzata Kul

We present a speech database and a phoneme-level language model of Polish. The database and model are designed for the analysis of prosodic and discourse factors and their impact o…

Recovering implicit pitch contours from formants in whispered speech

Pablo Pérez Zarazaga, Zofia Malisz

Whispered speech is characterised by a noise-like excitation that results in the lack of fundamental frequency. Considering that prosodic phenomena such as intonation are perceived…

Speaker-independent neural formant synthesis

Pablo Pérez Zarazaga, Zofia Malisz, Gustav Eje Henter +1

We describe speaker-independent speech synthesis driven by a small set of phonetically meaningful speech parameters such as formant frequencies. The intention is to leverage deep-l…

A processing framework to access large quantities of whispered speech found in ASMR

Pablo Perez Zarazaga, Gustav Eje Henter, Zofia Malisz

Whispering is a ubiquitous mode of communication that humans use daily. Despite this, whispered speech has been poorly served by existing speech technology due to a shortage of res…

Wavebender GAN: An architecture for phonetically meaningful speech manipulation

Gustavo Teodoro Döhler Beck, Ulme Wennberg, Zofia Malisz +1

Deep learning has revolutionised synthetic speech quality. However, it has thus far delivered little value to the speech science community. The new methods do not meet the controll…
