Voice Conversion for Whispered Speech Synthesis [PDF]
We present an approach to synthesize whisper by applying a handcrafted signal processing recipe and Voice Conversion (VC) techniques to convert normally phonated speech to whispered speech. We investigate using Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM) and Deep Neural Networks (DNN) to model the mapping between acoustic features of normal speech and those of ...

ALD‐Assisted VO2 for Memristor Application
This work demonstrates a strategy for depositing VOx using thermal atomic layer deposition (ALD) followed by thermal annealing to synthesize VO2. The thin film and core/shell wire memristors exhibit excellent switching performance and are highly sensitive to ambient temperature.

Quartered Spectral Envelope and 1D-CNN-based Classification of Normally Phonated and Whispered Speech [PDF]
Whisper, as a form of speech, is not sufficiently addressed by mainstream speech applications. This is due to the fact that systems built for normal speech do not work as expected for whispered speech. A first step to building a speech application that is inclusive of whispered speech, is the successful classification of whispered speech and normal ...

Limitations of Source-Filter Coupling In Phonation [PDF]
The coupling of vocal fold (source) and vocal tract (filter) is one of the most critical factors in source-filter articulation theory. The traditional linear source-filter theory has been challenged by current research which clearly shows the impact of acoustic loading on the dynamic behavior of the vocal fold vibration as well as the variations in the

Monitoring Neurological Disease in Phonation [PDF]
It is well known that many neurological diseases leave a fingerprint in voice and speech production. The dramatic impact of these pathologies in life quality is a growing concert. Many techniques have been designed for the detection, diagnose and monitoring the neurological disease.
