Recent research has demonstrated the effectiveness of vocal tract length normalization (VTLN) as a rapid adaptation technique for statistical parametric speech synthesis. VTLN produces speech with naturalness preferable to that of MLLR-based adaptation tec ...
We address the classical problem of delta feature computation, and interpret the operation involved in terms of Savitzky-Golay (SG) filtering. Features such as the mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs), obtained based on short-time spectra of the spe ...
In this thesis, methods and models are developed and presented aiming at the estimation, restoration and transformation of the characteristics of human speech. During a first period of the thesis, a concept was developed that allows restoring prosodic voic ...
The development of an Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) system for the bilingual MediaParl corpus is challenging for several reasons: (1) reverberant recordings, (2) accented speech, and (3) no prior information about the language. In that context, we emp ...
The advent of statistical parametric speech synthesis has paved new ways to a unified framework for hidden Markov model (HMM) based text to speech synthesis (TTS) and automatic speech recognition (ASR). The techniques and advancements made in the field of ...
Tracking vocal tract formant frequencies (fp) and estimating the fundamental frequency (f0) are two tracking problems that have been tackled in many speech processing works, often independently, with applications to articulatory parameters estimation ...

Current HMM-based low bit rate speech coding systems work with phonetic vocoders. Pitch contour coding (on frame or phoneme level) is usually fairly orthogonal to other speech coding parameters. We make an assumption in our work that the speech signal cont ...

Recent work in text to speech synthesis has pointed to the benefit of using a continuous pitch estimate; that is, one that records pitch even when voicing is not present. Such an approach typically requires interpolation. The purpose of this paper is to sh ...
Many works on speech processing have dealt with auto-regressive (AR) models for spectral envelope and formant frequency estimation, mostly focusing on the estimation of the AR parameters. However, it is also interesting to be able to directly estimate the ...
