Zero-shot singing voice synthesis (SVS), the task to synthesize the singing voice of an
arbitrary target singer, has gained increasing attentions in the past few years. Several …

This paper proposes a singing style control technique based on multiple regression hidden
semi-Markov models (MRHSMMs) for changing singing styles and their intensities …

Speech synthesized from the same text should sound differently depending on the speaking
style. Current speech synthesis techniques based on the hidden Markov model (HMM) …

One of the most popular approaches to parameter adaptation in hidden Markov model
(HMM) based systems is the maximum likelihood linear regression (MLLR) technique. In our …

In our previous work, we proposed factored maximum likelihood linear regression (FMLLR)
adaptation where each MLLR parameter is defined as a function of a control vector. In this …

The document analyzes and describes the 'intangible'artistic expressions chosen by the
project as use cases and defines the basic requirements of the i-Treasures system that will …

Parameter adaptation is necessitated to reduce the mismatch between the training and test
conditions caused by speaker variability, channel difference and environmental effects …
