    • A Hybrid Method Oriented to Concatenative Text-to-Speech Synthesis 

      Iriondo Sanz, Ignasi; Alías Pujol, Francesc; Sanchís Bernabeu, Francisco Javier; Melenchón Maldonado, Javier (2003-09-01)
      In this paper we present a speech synthesis method for diphonebased text-to-speech systems. Its main goal is to achieve prosodic modifications that result in more natural-sounding synthetic speech. This ...

    • A Pitch Marks Filtering Algorithm Based on Restricted Dynamic Programming 

      Alías Pujol, Francesc; Monzó Sánchez, Carlos; Socoró Carrié, Joan Claudi (2006-09-17)
      In this paper, a generic pitch marks filtering algorithm (PMFA) is introduced in order to achieve reliable and smooth pitch marks from any input pitch tracking or marking algorithm. The proposed PMFA ...

    • La Conversión de Texto en Habla Multidominio: principios y portabilidad 

      Alías Pujol, Francesc; Socoró Carrié, Joan Claudi (Libro de actas de las IV Jornadas en Tecnología del Habla, 2006-11-08)
      La conversión de texto en habla (CTH) multidominio per-sigue conseguir una calidad sintética cercana a la de lossistemas de CTH diseñados para un determinado ámbi-to o aplicación, aumentando su flexibilidad ...

    • La evolución de la Síntesis del Habla en Ingeniería La Salle 

      Alías Pujol, Francesc; Iriondo Sanz, Ignasi (2002-12-16)
      Este artículo resume la trayectoria del grupo de Tecnologías del Habla de Ingeniería La Salle (Universitat Ramon Llull) en el marco de la investigación y el desarrollo de sistemas de síntesis del habla. ...

    • Evolutionary weight tuning based on diphone pairsfor unit selection speech synthesis 

      Alías Pujol, Francesc; Llorà Fàbrega, Xavier (2003-09-01)
      Unit selection text-to-speech (TTS) conversion is an ongoingresearch for the speech synthesis community. This paper isfocused on tuning the weights involved in the target and con-catenation cost metrics. ...

    • GTM-URL Contribution to the INTERSPEECH 2009 Emotion Challenge 

      Planet García, Santiago; Iriondo Sanz, Ignasi; Socoró Carrié, Joan Claudi; Monzo Sánchez, Carlos; Adell, Jordi (2009-09)
      This paper describes our participation in the INTERSPEECH 2009 Emotion Challenge [1]. Starting from our previous experience in the use of automatic classification for the validation of an expressive ...

    • High quality Spanish restricted-domain TTSoriented to a weather forecast application 

      Alías Pujol, Francesc; Iriondo Sanz, Ignasi; Formiga Fanals, Lluís; Gonzalvo Fructuoso, Xavier; Monzo Sánchez, Carlos; Sevillano Domínguez, Xavier (2005-09-04)
      A restricted domain text-to-speech system oriented to a weatherforecast application is presented. This TTS system is embed-ded in a multimedia interactive service accessible from differ-ent media, such ...

    • Multi-domain text classification for unit selectionText-to-Speech synthesis 

      Alías Pujol, Francesc; Iriondo Sanz, Ignasi; Barnola Augé, Pere (2003-08-03)
      This paper presents a new approach for designing aconcatenative text-to-speech (TTS) system based onmulti-domain unit selection. The method achievesgood synthetic quality with reasonable ...

    • Multi-domain Text-to-Speech Synthesis by Automatic Text Classification 

      Alías Pujol, Francesc; Socoró Carrié, Joan Claudi; Sevillano Domínguez, Xavier; Iriondo Sanz, Ignasi; Gonzalvo Fructuoso, Xavier (2006-09-17)
      This paper describes a multi-domain text-to-speech (MD-TTS)synthesis strategy for generating speech among different domainsand so increasing the flexibility of high quality TTS systems. Tothat ...

    • Sentiment classification in English from sentence-levelannotations of emotions regarding models of affect 

      Trilla Castelló, Alexandre; Alías Pujol, Francesc (2009-09-06)
