Singing Voice Conversion (SVC) aims to transform a source singing voice into a target singer while preserving lyrics and melody. Most existing SVC methods depend on F0 extractors to capture the lead melody from clean vocals. However, no existing method can reliably extract clean vocals from accompan…
Periodic patterns are a fundamental characteristic of time series in natural world, with significant implications for a range of disciplines, from economics to cloud systems. However, the current literature on periodicity detection faces two key challenges: limited robustness in real-world scenarios…
We present an end-to-end system for multi-speaker emotional speech synthesis. In particular, our system learns emotion classes from just two speakers then generalizes these classes to other speakers from whom no emotional data was seen. We address the problem by integrating disentangled, fine-graine…
This paper describes an end-to-end voice conversion system, which involves three main ideas: transformer, context preservation mechanisms, and model adaptation. Self-attention in the transformer architecture directly connects all positions, making it easier to learn long range dependencies and impro…
