Kernel Density Estimation-Based Markov Models with Hidden State
Gustav Eje Henter, Arne Leijon, W. Bastiaan Kleijn
We consider Markov models of stochastic processes where the next-step conditional distribution is defined by a kernel density estimator (KDE), similar to Markov forecast densities…
Analysing Shortcomings of Statistical Parametric Speech Synthesis
Gustav Eje Henter, Simon King, Thomas Merritt +1
Output from statistical parametric speech synthesis (SPSS) remains noticeably worse than natural speech recordings in terms of quality, naturalness, speaker similarity, and intelli…
Deep Encoder-Decoder Models for Unsupervised Learning of Controllable Speech Synthesis
Gustav Eje Henter, Jaime Lorenzo-Trueba, Xin Wang +1
Generating versatile and appropriate synthetic speech requires control over the output expression separate from the spoken text. Important non-textual speech variation is seldom an…
