Voice Quality Conversion by Two-Step Process of Speech Feature Extraction and Speaker-Controlled Speech Synthesis
Taichi Fukawa, Kenya Jin'no (Tokyo City Univ.) CCS2022-52
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Many methods have been proposed in the field of voice quality conversion that use a style-transforming autoencoder. However, since these methods do not completely separate the encoder and decoder, the basis for removing speaker features from the input speech is not clear. Therefore, it is unclear how to improve the quality of speaker features in the output speech. In this study, we propose a new voice quality conversion method based on speaker-controlled speech synthesis. We verify the self-recovery and voice quality conversion performance, and confirm that high-quality voice quality conversion for known speakers is possible.
