Performance Evaluation for Voice Conversion Systems
In the present work, we introduce a new performance evaluation measure for assessing the capacity of voice conversion systems to modify the speech of one speaker (source) so that it sounds as if it was uttered by another speaker (target). This measure relies on a GMM-UBM-based likelihood estimator that estimates the degree of proximity between an utterance of the converted voice and the predefi...
متن کاملThe RWTH 2007 TC-STAR evaluation system for european English and Spanish
In this work, the RWTH automatic speech recognition systems developed for the third TC-STAR evaluation campaign 2007 are presented. The RWTH systems make systematic use of internal system combination, combining systems with differences in feature extraction, adaptation methods, and training data used. To take advantage of this, novel feature extraction methods were employed; this year saw the i...
متن کاملThe ISL TC-STAR Spring 2006 ASR Evaluation Systems
The project Technology and Corpora for Speech to Speech Translation (TC-STAR) aims at making a break-through in speech-to-speech translation research, significantly reducing the gap between the performance of machines and humans at this task. Technological and scientific progress is driven by periodic, competitive evaluations within the project. For automatic speech recognition the Interactive ...
متن کاملThe Limsi 2006 Tc - Star Transcription Systems ∗
This paper describes the speech recognizers evaluated in the TC-STAR Second Evaluation Campaign held in JanuaryFebruary 2006. Systems were developed to transcribe parliamentary speeches in English and Spanish, as well as Broadcast news in Mandarin Chinese. The speech recognizers are stateof-the-art systems using multiple decoding passes with models (lexicon, acoustic models, language models) tr...
متن کاملAn overview of voice conversion systems
Voice transformation (VT) aims to change one or more aspects of a speech signal while preserving linguistic information. A subset of VT, Voice conversion (VC) specifically aims to change a source speaker’s speech in such a way that the generated output is perceived as a sentence uttered by a target speaker. Despite many years of research, VC systems still exhibit deficiencies in accurately mimi...
