We propose a method for synthesizing a “speaker mixture voice” that has both of two speakers’ individualities. We define the “speaker mixture voice” as such that 50 per...
We propose a novel feature set for speaker recognition that is based on the voice source signal. The feature extraction process uses closed-phase LPC analysis to estimate the voca...
F0 is an acoustic feature that varies largely from one speaker to another. F0 is characterized by a discontinuity in the transition between voiced and unvoiced sounds that present...

This paper combines a parameter generation algorithm and a model optimization approach with the model-integration-based voice conversion (MIVC). We have proposed probabilistic int...
The popular mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs) capture a mixture of speaker-related, phonemic and channel information. Speaker-related information could be further broke...
