Setup for acoustic-visual speech synthesis by concatenating bimodal units
This paper presents preliminary work on building a system able to synthesize concurrently the speech signal and a 3D animation of the speaker's face. This is done by concaten...

Using a pitch-synchronous residual codebook for hybrid HMM/frame selection speech synthesis
This paper proposes a method to improve the quality delivered by statistical parametric speech synthesizers. For this, we use a codebook of pitch-synchronous residual frames, so a...

Context adaptive training with factorized decision trees for HMM-based speech synthesis
To achieve natural high quality synthesised speech in HMMbased speech synthesis, the effective modelling of complex acoustic and linguistic contexts is critical. Traditional appro...

Admissible stopping in viterbi beam search for unit selection in concatenative speech synthesis
Corpus-based concatenative speech synthesis is very popular these days due to its highly natural speech quality. The amount of computation required in the run time, however, is of...

3D Lip-Synch Generation with Data-Faithful Machine Learning
This paper proposes a new technique for generating three-dimensional speech animation. The proposed technique takes advantage of both data-driven and machine learning approaches. ...
