Applying the harmonic plus noise model in concatenative speech synthesis
This paper describes the application of the harmonic plus noise model (HNM) for concatenative text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis. In the context of HNM, speech signals are represented as a time-varying harmonic component plus a modulated noise component. The decomposition of a speech signal into these two components allows for more natural-sounding modifications of the signal (e.g., by using differ...
متن کاملA system for voice conversion based on probabilistic classification and a harmonic plus noise model
Voice conversion is defined as modifying the speech signal of one speaker (source speaker) so that it sounds as if it had been pronounced by a different speaker (target speaker). This paper describes a system for efficient voice conversion. A novel mapping function is presented which associates the acoustic space of the source speaker with the acoustic space of the target speaker. The proposed ...
متن کاملNoisy templates explain area summation
The noisy template model is a variant of an ideal detector for a signal known except for contrast. The ideal detector cross-correlates the stimulus with a normalised template which is matched to the known signal pattern. The noisy template model simply adds noise to the matched template every time it is cross-correlated with the signal. This paper outlines the predictions of the noisy template ...
متن کاملApproximate Kalman Filtering for the Harmonic plus Noise Model
We present a probabilistic description of the Harmonic plus Noise Model (HNM) for speech signals. This probabilistic formulation permits Maximum Likelihood (ML) parameter estimation and speech synthesis becomes a straightforward sampling from a distribution. It also permits development of a Kalman filter that tracks model parameters such as pitch, harmonic amplitudes, and autoregressive coeffic...
متن کاملA Long-Term Harmonic Plus Noise Model for Speech Signals
The harmonic plus noise model (HNM) is widely used for spectral modeling of mixed harmonic/noise speech sounds. In this paper, we present an analysis/synthesis system based on a long-term two-band HNM. “Long-term” means that the time-trajectories of the HNM parameters are modeled using “smooth” (discrete cosine) functions depending on a small set of parameters. The goal is to capture and exploi...
