Unified Framework of Feature Based Adaptation for Statistical Speech Synthesis and Recognition

Lakshmi Babu Saheer

The advent of statistical parametric speech synthesis has paved new ways to a unified framework for hidden Markov model (HMM) based text to speech synthesis (TTS) and automatic speech recognition (ASR). The techniques and advancements made in the field of ...

Vocal Tract Length Normalization for Statistical Parametric Speech Synthesis

Philip Neil Garner, Lakshmi Babu Saheer, John David Scott Dines

Vocal tract length normalization (VTLN) has been successfully used in automatic speech recognition for improved performance. The same technique can be implemented in statistical parametric speech synthesis for rapid speaker adaptation during synthesis. Thi ...

Personalising speech-to-speech translation: Unsupervised cross-lingual speaker adaptation for HMM-based speech synthesis

Lakshmi Babu Saheer, John David Scott Dines, Hui Liang

In this paper we present results of unsupervised cross-lingual speaker adaptation applied to text-to-speech synthesis. The application of our research is the personalisation of speech-to-speech translation in which we employ a HMM statistical framework for ...
