There are numerous models of varying complexities which seek to efficiently represent the voice source signal. These models are typically based on data and observations which can...
A new method is proposed to jointly estimate the shape parameter of a glottal model and its time position in a voiced segment. We show that, the idea of phase flatness (or phase ...
To make voice conversion usable in practical applications, the number of training sentences should be minimized. With traditional Gaussian mixture model (GMM) based techniques sma...
In this paper, we propose a new method of blind source separation (BSS) for music signals. Our method has the following characteristics: 1) the method is a combination of the spar...
Voice conversion has become more and more important in speech technology, but most of current works have to use parallel utterances of both source and target speaker as the traini...
