Unified numerical simulation of the physics of voice. The EUNISON project
(8th ISCA Speech Synthesis Workshop 2013, 2013-08-31)
In this demo we will briefly outline the scope of the european EUNISON project, which aims at a unified numerical simulation of the physics of voice by resorting to supercomputer fa-cilities, and present ...
A Hybrid Method Oriented to Concatenative Text-to-Speech Synthesis
(8th European Conference on Speech Communication and Technology. EUROSPEECH 2003 - INTERSPEECH 2003, 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 ...
Multi-domain text classification for unit selectionText-to-Speech synthesis
(15th International Congress of Phonetic Sciences (ICPhS-15), 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 ...
Evolutionary weight tuning based on diphone pairsfor unit selection speech synthesis
(8th European Conference on Speech Communication and Technology. EUROSPEECH 2003 - INTERSPEECH 2003, 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. ...
La Conversión de Texto en Habla Multidominio: principios y portabilidad
(Universidad de Zaragoza, 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 ...
A Pitch Marks Filtering Algorithm Based on Restricted Dynamic Programming
(Ninth International Conference on Spoken Language Processing. INTERSPEECH 2006, 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 ...
Sentiment classification in English from sentence-levelannotations of emotions regarding models of affect
(10th Annual Conference of the International Speech Communication Association. INTERSPEECH 2009, 2009-09-06)
This paper presents a text classifier for automatically taggingthe sentiment of input text according to the emotion that is beingconveyed. This system has a pipelined framework composedof Natural Language ...

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. ...
HMM-based Spanish speech synthesis using CBR as F0 estimator
(ITRW on Nonlinear Speech Processing, Paris, 22-25 of May 2007, 2007-05)
Hidden Markov Models based text-to-speech (HMM-TTS) syn thesis is a technique for generating speech from trained statisti cal models where spectrum, pitch and durations of basic speech
units are modelled ...
Multi-domain Text-to-Speech Synthesis by Automatic Text Classification
(Ninth International Conference on Spoken Language Processing. INTERSPEECH 2006, 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 ...
