A fast table lookup based, statistical model driven non-uniform unit selection TTS

Yao Qian, Frank. K. Soong, Xiaobo Zhou, Yundi Qian, Xiaotian Zhang
2013 2013 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing  
Experimental results show that the new approach can significantly reduce the search complexity while keep a high TTS voice quality.  ...  For multi-channel TTS applications, e.g. in a cloud service, it is highly desirable that high quality speech can be synthesized in low complexity.  ...  Recently, we proposed a trajectory tiling based approach to high quality speech synthesis [4] , which uses the trajectories generated by the HMM to guide unit selection for finding the best match in spectrum  ...

ATLAS level-1 calorimeter trigger hardware: initial timing and energy calibration

J T Childers
2011 Journal of Physics, Conference Series  
The ATLAS Level-1 Calorimeter Trigger identifies high-pT objects in the Liquid Argon and Tile Calorimeters with a fixed latency of up to 2.5 µs using a hardware-based, pipelined system built with custom  ...  The BCID and energy measurement in the trigger depend on precise timing adjustments to achieve correct sampling of the input signal peak.  ...  The electromagnetic layer is shown in 2(a) with beam-1 (−η trajectory). The hadronic layer is shown in 2(b) with beam-2 (+η trajectory).  ...

Improving Naturalness of HMM-Based TTS Trained with Limited Data by Temporal Decomposition

Trung-Nghia PHUNG, Thanh-Son PHAN, Thang Tat VU, Mai Chi LUONG, Masato AKAGI
2013 IEICE transactions on information and systems  
To achieve this motivation, a hybrid TTS between HMM-based TTS and the modified restricted Temporal Decomposition (MRTD), named HTD in this paper, was proposed.  ...  Therefore, prosodic trajectories and MRTD event functions of the spectral trajectory generated by HMM-based TTS were kept unchanged to preserve the high and stable intelligibility of HMM-based TTS.  ...  Acknowledgements This study was supported by the Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (A) (No. 25240026) and the A3 Foresight Program made available by the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS  ...

A deep bidirectional LSTM approach for video-realistic talking head

Bo Fan, Lei Xie, Shan Yang, Lijuan Wang, Frank K. Soong
2015 Multimedia tools and applications  
To further improve the realism of the proposed talking head, the trajectory tiling method is adopted to use the DBLSTM predicted AAM trajectory as a guide to select a smooth real sample image sequence  ...  For any unseen speech audio, whether it is original recorded or synthesized by text-to-speech (TTS), the trained DBLSTM model can predict a convincing AAM parameter trajectory for the lower face animation  ...  We proposed a real-time speech-driven talking avatar based on real-time phoneme recognition and motion trajectory generation through dynamic visemes [24] .  ...
