The goal of Automatic Voice Over (AVO) is to generate speech in sync with a silent video given its text script. Recent AVO frameworks built upon text-to-speech synthesis (TTS) have shown impressive results. However, the current AVO learning…

We formulated non-speech vocalization (NSV) modeling as a text-to-speech task and verified its viability. Specifically, we evaluated the phonetic expressivity of HUBERT speech units on NSVs and verified our model's ability to control over…

Speaker verification (SV) utilizing features obtained from models pre-trained via self-supervised learning has recently demonstrated impressive performances. However, these pre-trained models (PTMs) usually have a temporal resolution of 20…

Automatic speaker verification (ASV) technology is recently finding its way to end-user applications for secure access to personal data, smart services or physical facilities. Similar to other biometric technologies, speaker verification is…

Although Singing Voice Synthesis (SVS) has made great strides with Text-to-Speech (TTS) techniques, multilingual singing voice modeling remains relatively unexplored. This paper presents BiSinger, a bilingual pop SVS system for English and…

Neural evaluation metrics derived for numerous speech generation tasks have recently attracted great attention. In this paper, we propose SVSNet, the first end-to-end neural network model to assess the speaker voice similarity between…

Advances in automatic speaker verification (ASV) promote research into the formulation of spoofing detection systems for real-world applications. The performance of ASV systems can be degraded severely by multiple types of spoofing attacks,…

Various parametric representations have been proposed to model the speech signal. While the performance of such vocoders is well-known in the context of speech processing, their extrapolation to singing voice synthesis might not be…

We present a thorough analysis of the findings of the latest iteration of the Singing Voice Conversion Challenge, a scientific event aiming to compare and understand different voice conversion systems in a controlled environment. Compared…

A typical neural speech enhancement (SE) approach mainly handles speech and noise mixtures, which is not optimal for singing voice enhancement scenarios. Music source separation (MSS) models treat vocals and various accompaniment components…

In this paper, we propose an end-to-end Korean singing voice synthesis system from lyrics and a symbolic melody using the following three novel approaches: 1) phonetic enhancement masking, 2) local conditioning of text and pitch to the…

In this paper we propose modifications to the neural network framework, AutoVC for the task of singing technique conversion. This includes utilising a pretrained singing technique encoder which extracts technique information, upon which a…

In this paper, we propose a novel neural network model called KaraSinger for a less-studied singing voice synthesis (SVS) task named score-free SVS, in which the prosody and melody are spontaneously decided by machine. KaraSinger comprises…

The Support Vector Machine (SVM) method has been widely used in numerous classification tasks. The main idea of this algorithm is based on the principle of the margin maximization to find an hyperplane which separates the data into two…

This paper proposes a voice conversion (VC) method using sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq or S2S) learning, which flexibly converts not only the voice characteristics but also the pitch contour and duration of input speech. The proposed…

This paper proposes a forward attention method for the sequenceto- sequence acoustic modeling of speech synthesis. This method is motivated by the nature of the monotonic alignment from phone sequences to acoustic sequences. Only the…

This paper proposes a new task called spatial voice conversion, which aims to convert a target voice while preserving spatial information and non-target signals. Traditional voice conversion methods focus on single-channel waveforms,…

Human voices can be used to authenticate the identity of the speaker, but the automatic speaker verification (ASV) systems are vulnerable to voice spoofing attacks, such as impersonation, replay, text-to-speech, and voice conversion.…

This paper describes the design of NNSVS, an open-source software for neural network-based singing voice synthesis research. NNSVS is inspired by Sinsy, an open-source pioneer in singing voice synthesis research, and provides many…

This paper proposes a controllable singing voice synthesis system capable of generating expressive singing voice with two novel methodologies. First, a local style token module, which predicts frame-level style tokens from an input pitch…
