Phoneme-Level Duration Controllable Neural Text-to-Speech With Phoneme Embedding Skip Connection and Modified Gaussian Duration Modeling

IEEE Access
This paper proposes a simple but practically important and effective approach to improve phoneme duration expansion and contraction control in neural text-to-speech (TTS) systems for modifying the speaking rate of synthesized speech.

Decoherence processes in a current biased dc SQUID

, 2006
A current bias dc SQUID behaves as an anharmonic quantum oscillator controlled by a bias current and an applied magnetic flux. We consider here its two level limit consisting of the two lower energy states $| 0 \right>$ and $| 1 \right>$.

A citation-based map of concepts in invasion biology [PDF]

, 2019
Invasion biology has been quickly expanding in the last decades so that it is now metaphorically flooded with publications, concepts, and hypotheses. Among experts, there is no clear consensus about the relationships between invasion concepts, and almost

Overlap of nonbreeding wandering albatrosses with fisheries and implications for colony‐specific population trajectories at South Georgia

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bycatch in fisheries is one of the most serious threats to pelagic seabirds, causing major population declines. Mitigation measures can reduce bycatch substantially, but many fisheries fail to apply best practices, and seabird mortality remains high.

The contribution of supernova remnants to the galactic cosmic ray spectrum

, 2010
The supernova paradigm for the origin of galactic cosmic rays has been deeply affected by the development of the non-linear theory of particle acceleration at shock waves. Here we discuss the implications of applying such theory to the calculation of the

Analysis of Human Uniparental Embryonic Stem Cells Reveals New Putative Imprinted Loci

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
To identify novel imprinted genes, parthenogenetic, androgenetic and biparental human embryonic stem cells and their differentiated neural progenitors were analysed by methylome and transcriptome profiling. This approach uncovered 12 putative novel imprinted genes, including a clustered region on chromosome 19, expanding the current catalogue of ...

Dusty Structure Around Type-I Active Galactic Nuclei: Clumpy Torus Narrow Line Region and Near-Nucleus Hot Dust [PDF]

, 2009
We fitted Spitzer/IRS ~2-35 um spectra of 26 luminous QSOs in attempt to define the main emission components. Our model has three major components: a clumpy torus, dusty narrow line region (NLR) clouds and a blackbody-like dust.
