Capturing Suprasegmental Features of a Voice with RNNs for Improved Speaker Clustering [PDF]
, 2018 Deep neural networks have become a veritable alternative to classic speaker recognition and clustering methods in recent years. However, while the speech signal clearly is a time series, and despite the body of literature on the benefits of prosodic (suprasegmental) features, identifying voices has usually not been approached with sequence learning ...

Playing with the suprasegmental features of speech, musicality and movement [PDF]
Nordic Journal of Music Therapy, 2016 Background: Our spoken language is inevitably linked to music. This can be seen in the suprasegmental features of the speech because prosody is defined as changes in voice and rhythm of speech. Therefore, it is possible to establish a clear analogy between speech and musicality.Objective: This workshop aims to explore the different possibilities of the

Two-pass decision tree construction for unsupervised adaptation of HMM-based synthesis models [PDF]
, 2009 Hidden Markov model (HMM) -based speech synthesis systems possess several advantages over concatenative synthesis systems. One such advantage is the relative ease with which HMM-based systems are adapted to speakers not present in the training dataset ...
