    • A unit selection text-to-speech-and-singing synthesis framework from neutral speech: proof of concept 

      Freixes Guerreiro, Marc; Alías Pujol, Francesc; Socoró Carrié, Joan Claudi (EURASIP Journal on Audio, Speech, and Music Processing. 2019:22, 2019-12)
      Text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis systems have been widely used in general-purpose applications based on the generation of speech. Nonetheless, there are some domains, such as storytelling or voice output ...
    • Glottal Source Contribution to Higher Order Modes in the Finite Element Synthesis of Vowels 

      Freixes Guerreiro, Marc; Arnela Coll, Marc; Socoró Carrié, Joan Claudi; Alías Pujol, Francesc; Guasch Fortuny, Oriol (Applied Sciences. 2019, Vol. 9, No. 21, 2019-10)
      Articulatory speech synthesis has long been based on one-dimensional (1D) approaches. They assume plane wave propagation within the vocal tract and disregard higher order modes that typically appear ...
    • Voice quality modelling for expressive speech synthesis 

      Monzo Sánchez, Carlos; Iriondo Sanz, Ignasi; Socoró Carrié, Joan Claudi (The Scientific World Journal. 2014, 2014-01)
      This paper presents the perceptual experiments that were carried out in order to validate the methodology of transforming expressive speech styles using voice quality (VoQ) parameters modelling, along ...
