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 ...
High quality Spanish restricted-domain TTSoriented to a weather forecast application
(9th European Conference on Speech Communication and Technology. Interspeech'2005 - Eurospeech, 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 ...
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 ...
Feature Diversity in Cluster Ensembles for Robust Document Clustering
(29th annual international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrieval, Seattle, 6-11 of August 2006, 2006-08)
The performance of document clustering systems depends
on employing optimal text representations, which are not
only difficult to determine beforehand, but also may vary
from one clustering problem to ...
Adaptación del CTH-URL para la competición Albayzin 2008
(V Jornadas en Tecnología del Habla, Bilbao, del 12-14 de noviembre 2008, 2008-11)
En esta comunicación describimos el sistema de síntesis de voz
presentado a la competición Albayzin 2008. Es un sistema que
sigue un esquema clásico de concatenación de unidades basado
en corpus. Cabe ...
Analyzing Active Interactive Genetic Algorithms using Visual Analytics
(8th annual conference on Genetic and evolutionary computation, Seattle, 8-12 of July 2006, 2006-07)
This paper builds introduces visual-analytic techniques to
aggregate, summarize, and visualize the information generated during interactive evolutionary processes. Special visualizations of the user-provided ...
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 ...
