VocaliD: personalizing text-to-speech synthesis for individuals with severe speech impairment
Speech synthesis options on assistive communication devices are very limited and do not reflect the user’s vocal quality or personality. Previous work suggests that speakers wit...

Adaptation of a tongue shape model by local feature transformations
Reconstructing the full contour of the tongue from the position of 3 to 4 landmarks on it is useful in articulatory speech work. This can be done with submillimetric accuracy usin...

Speaker-adaptive learning of resonance targets in a hidden trajectory model of speech coarticulation
A novel speaker-adaptive learning algorithm is developed and evaluated for a hidden trajectory model of speech coarticulation and reduction. Central to this model is the process o...

Synthesis of fast speech with interpolation of adapted HSMMs and its evaluation by blind and sighted listeners
In this paper we evaluate a method for generating synthetic speech at high speaking rates based on the interpolation of hidden semi-Markov models (HSMMs) trained on speech data re...
