Speech synthesis using HMM based diphone inventory encoding for low-resource devices
In this paper we describe the compression of diphone inventories used by the acoustic synthesis of a concatenative synthesis system. The inventory compression is based on a codebo...

Does computer-generated speech manifest personality? an experimental test of similarity-attraction
This study examines whether people would interpret and respond to paralinguistic personality cues in computergenerated speech in the same way as they do human speech. Participants...

Utilizing glottal source pulse library for generating improved excitation signal for HMM-based speech synthesis
This paper describes a source modeling method for hidden Markov model (HMM) based speech synthesis for improved naturalness. A speech corpus is rst decomposed into the glottal sou...

Autoregressive modeling of voiced speech
It is well known that the classical linear predictive model for speech fails to take into account the quasi-periodic nature of the glottal flow typical of voiced speech. In this ...
