Tractable learning for complex probability queries

2015 · Lirias

Tractable learning aims to learn probabilistic models where inference is guaran-teed to be efficient. However, the particular class of queries that is tractable de-pends on the model and underlying representation. Usually this class is MPE …

Interactive Multi-Level Prosody Control for Expressive Speech Synthesis

2022 · ICASSP 2022 - 2022 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP)

Recent neural-based text-to-speech (TTS) models are able to produce highly natural speech. To synthesize expressive speech, the prosody of the speech has to be modeled, and predicted/controlled during synthesis. However, intuitive control over prosody remains …
