This paper investigates style transplantation modeling techniques for DNN-based statistical parametric speech synthesis. The problem treated here is to generate expressive speech of a given target speaker with only using a small amount of his/her reading style speech data. For this purpose, we propose two models, which utilize i-vector as an input to DNN. The basic idea of the proposed modeling framework is to construct an acoustic model which can control voice characteristics and emotional expression and/or speaking style using multi speaker’s expressive speech data. In the proposed framework, the i-vector is used to control voice characteristics of the synthetic speech. Through objective and subjective evaluation experiments we compare the performance of the proposed style trans- plantation modeling techniques with the conventional ones in which a speaker code represented by one-hot vector is used as an input to DNN. |
