Factored Mllr Adaptation for Hmm-based Expressive Speech Synthesis
One of the most popular approaches to parameter adaptation in hidden Markov model (HMM) based systems is the maximum likelihood linear regression (MLLR) technique. In our previous work, we proposed factored MLLR (FMLLR) where MLLR parameter is defined as a function of a control parameter vector. We presented a method to train the FMLLR parameters based on a general framework of the expectationm...
متن کاملSpeaker adaptation for HMM-based speech synthesis system using MLLR
This paper describes a voice characteristics conversion technique for an HMM-based text-to-speech synthesis system. The system uses phoneme HMMs as the speech synthesis units, and voice characteristics conversion is achieved by changing HMM parameters appropriately. To transform the voice characteristics of synthetic speech to the target speaker, we apply an MLLR (Maximum Likelihood Linear Regr...

متن کاملAdaptation of pitch and spectrum for HMM-based speech synthesis using MLLR
This paper describes a technique for synthesizing speech with an arbitrary speaker characteristics using speaker independent speech units, which we call “average voice” units. The technique is based on an HMM-based text-to-speech (TTS) system and MLLR adaptation algorithm. In the HMM-based TTS system, speech synthesis units are modeled by multi-space probability distribution (MSD) HMMs which ca...
متن کاملUnsupervised adaptation for HMM-based speech synthesis
It is now possible to synthesise speech using HMMswith a comparable quality to unit-selection techniques. Generating speech from a model has many potential advantages over concatenating waveforms. The most exciting is model adaptation. It has been shown that supervised speaker adaptation can yield highquality synthetic voices with an order of magnitude less data than required to train a speaker...
