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…
