Generating Diverse and Natural Text-to-Speech Samples Using a Quantized Fine-Grained VAE and Autoregressive Prosody Prior [PDF]
IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 2020 Recent neural text-to-speech (TTS) models with fine-grained latent features enable precise control of the prosody of synthesized speech. Such models typically incorporate a fine-grained variational autoencoder (VAE) structure, extracting latent features ...

CopyCat: Many-to-Many Fine-Grained Prosody Transfer for Neural Text-to-Speech [PDF]
Interspeech, 2020 Prosody Transfer (PT) is a technique that aims to use the prosody from a source audio as a reference while synthesising speech. Fine-grained PT aims at capturing prosodic aspects like rhythm, emphasis, melody, duration, and loudness, from a source audio ...

Mark my words: tone of voice changes affective word representations in memory. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 The present study explored the effect of speaker prosody on the representation of words in memory. To this end, participants were presented with a series of words and asked to remember the words for a subsequent recognition test. During study, words were

Cadernos de Linguística, 2021 This paper focuses on the experience of spoken corpora compilation and discusses the relevance of prosody in this type of endeavor, as well as in the study of spoken language in its several possibilities. Through the voices of scholars associated with four different projects (CorpAfroAs, Mohawk Corpus, LABLITA, C-ORAL-BRASIL), the steps considered of ...

La Bretagne linguistique, 1993 Comment la langue et son accentuation s’adaptent-elles aux contraintes de la mélodie ? De ces deux éléments, qu’est-ce qui prime dans l’élaboration d’un chant ? La mise en évidence de la relation entre l’accentuation des paroles et celle de la mélodie est le but de la prosodie musicale.

Hierarchical Prosody Modeling for Non-Autoregressive Speech Synthesis [PDF]
Spoken Language Technology Workshop, 2020 Prosody modeling is an essential component in modern text-to-speech (TTS) frameworks. By explicitly providing prosody features to the TTS model, the style of synthesized utterances can thus be controlled.
