Voice transformation is the process of transforming the characteristics of speech uttered by a source speaker, such that a listener would believe the speech was uttered by a target speaker. In this paper we address the problem of transforming voice quality. We do not attempt to transform prosody.

In Noh, a traditional performing art of Japan, extremely expressive voice quality is used to convey an emotional message. A periodicity of voice appears responsible for these special effects. Acoustic signals were recorded for selected portions of dramatic singing in order to study the acoustic effects of delicate voice control by a master of the ...

Dimensionality in Voice Quality
Journal of Voice, 2007This study concerns speaking voice quality in a group of male teachers (n = 35) and male actors (n = 36), as the purpose was to investigate normal and supranormal voices. The goal was the development of a method of valid perceptual evaluation for normal to supranormal and resonant voices.

On voice quality of IP Voice over GPRS
2000 IEEE International Conference on Multimedia and Expo. ICME2000. Proceedings. Latest Advances in the Fast Changing World of Multimedia (Cat. No.00TH8532), 2002We consider the voice quality of IP Voice over a GPRS connection. We investigate how different speech codecs fit into GPRS packet data channels and the resulting subjective voice quality in a number of test cases.

Voice morphing is a technique for modifying a source speaker's speech to sound as if it was spoken by some designated target speaker. Most of the recent approaches to voice morphing apply a linear transformation to the spectral envelope and pitch scaling to modify the prosody.

The characteristic voice quality of a speaker conveys to listeners a wealth of information about his physical, psychological and social attributes. For this reason, voice quality is of interest to a wide range of disciplines, including linguistics, phonetics and speech science, speech pathology, sociology, psychology, medicine, and communication ...

Voice Quality Assessment and Visualization
2012 Sixth International Conference on Complex, Intelligent, and Software Intensive Systems, 2012Commercial voice analysis systems are expensive and complicated. These equipments are only available at medical centers and need to be operated by well trained physicians. Thus the treatment costs of speech disorders are usually high. To improve this situation, we develop a software system dedicated to the assessment of human voice qualities.

The laryngeal vestibule and voice quality
Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 1986Most of the literature on voice quality focuses on the vocal folds while six other gestures involving the laryngeal entry and epilaryngeal structures are largely ignored. Whole organ tracer series histograms of the larynx are examined and suggestions are made as to which muscles and/or forces might cause these gestures. An examination of photographs of
