A novel voice conversion system based on codebook mapping with phoneme-tied weighting
This paper presents a novel voice conversion system based on codebook mapping. A new phoneme-tied weighting strategy is proposed to reduce the smoothing effects in weighted sum of code books, while a new prosodic conversion method by decision tree is proposed to cope with the complex prosody of Chinese. STRAIGHT algorithm is used to decompose spectrum and excitation for separate modification. L...
متن کاملEmotional Speech Synthesis Based on Improved Codebook Mapping Voice Conversion
This paper presents a spectral transformation method for emotional speech synthesis based on voice conversion framework. Three emotions are studied, including anger, happiness and sadness. For the sake of high naturalness, superior speech quality and emotion expressiveness, our original STASC system is modified by introducing a new feature selection strategy and hierarchical codebook mapping pr...
متن کاملImproving of Segmental LMR-Mapping Based Voice Conversion Method
Spectral over-smoothing is still observable in the converted spectral envelope when linear multivariate regression (LMR) based spectrum mapping is adopted to convert voice. Therefore, in this paper, we study to place a histogram-equalization (HEQ) module immediately before LMR based mapping and to place a target frame selection (TFS) module immediately after LMR based mapping. These two modules...
متن کاملA Voice Conversion Mapping Function Based on a Stacked Joint-Autoencoder
In this study, we propose a novel method for training a regression function and apply it to a voice conversion task. The regression function is constructed using a Stacked Joint-Autoencoder (SJAE). Previously, we have used a more primitive version of this architecture for pre-training a Deep Neural Network (DNN). Using objective evaluation criteria, we show that the lower levels of the SJAE per...
متن کاملDesign and evaluation of a voice conversion algorithm based on spectral envelope mapping and residual prediction
The purpose of a voice conversion (VC) system is to change the perceived speaker identity of a speech signal. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm based on converting the LPC spectrum and predicting the residual as a function of the target envelope parameters. We conduct listening tests based on speaker discrimination of same/difference pairs to measure the accuracy by which the converted ...
