Decoding Vocal Articulations from Acoustic Latent Representations [PDF]

arXiv
We present a novel neural encoder system for acoustic-to-articulatory inversion. We leverage the Pink Trombone voice synthesizer that reveals articulatory parameters (e.g tongue position and vocal cord configuration). Our system is designed to identify the articulatory features responsible for producing specific acoustic characteristics contained in a ...
