Towards Optimal TTS Corpora
Unit selection text-to-speech systems currently produce very natural synthesized phrases by concatenating speech segments from a large database. Recently, increasing demand for de...

Summarization- and learning-based approaches to information distillation
Information distillation is the task that aims to extract relevant passages of text from massive volumes of textual and audio sources, given a query. In this paper, we investigate...

Continuous F0 in the source-excitation generation for HMM-based TTS: Do we need voiced/unvoiced classification?
Most HMM-based TTS systems use a hard voiced/unvoiced classification to produce a discontinuous F0 signal which is used for the generation of the source-excitation. When a mixed ...
