Evaluation of contextual descriptors for HMM-based speech synthesis in French
In HTS, a HMM-based speech synthesis system, about fifty contextual factors are introduced to label a segment to synthesize English utterances. Published studies indicate that most of them are used for clustering the prosodic component of speech. Nevertheless, the influence of all these factors on modeling is still unclear for French. The work presented in this paper deals with the analysis of ...
متن کاملÉvaluation segmentale du système de synthèse HTS pour le français (Segmental evaluation of HTS) [in French]
Segmental evaluation of HTS HTS is a parametric speech synthesis system based on the use of Hidden Markov Models (HMM). HTS is now widely used but very few studies have been conducted to analyze the influence of parameters on the quality of the synthetic speech. The aim of this paper is to provide an objective evaluation of the quality of the synthetic speech produced by HTS in order to assess ...
متن کاملFlexible Harmonic/stochastic Modeling for Hmm-based Speech Synthesis
In this paper the preliminary results, of a new approach on speech modeling for statistical parametric HMM-based speech synthesis are presented. The proposed system is based on a flexible pitch-asynchronous harmonic/stochastic model (HSM) [1]. The speech is modeled as the superposition of two components: a harmonic component and a stochastic or aperiodic component. The fact that the synthesis m...
متن کاملDetails of the Nitech HMM-Based Speech Synthesis System for the Blizzard Challenge 2005
In January 2005, an open evaluation of corpus-based textto-speech synthesis systems using common speech datasets, named Blizzard Challenge 2005, was conducted. Nitech group participated to this challenge with a newly designed HMM-based speech synthesis system (Nitech-HTS 2005). In the present paper, technical details, building processes, and the performance of the Nitech-HTS 2005 voices are des...
متن کاملThe HMM-based speech synthesis system (HTS) version 2.0
A statistical parametric speech synthesis system based on hidden Markov models (HMMs) has grown in popularity over the last few years. This system simultaneouslymodels spectrum, excitation, and duration of speech using context-dependent HMMs and generatesspeechwaveforms from the HMMs themselves. Since December 2002, we have publicly released an open-source software toolkit named HMM-based speec...
