Investigating automatic & human filled pause insertion for speech synthesis
Filled pauses are pervasive in conversational speech and have been shown to serve several psychological and structural purposes. Despite this, they are seldom modelled overtly by stateof-the-art speech synthesis systems. This paper seeks to motivate the incorporation of filled pauses into speech synthesis systems by exploring their use in conversational speech, and by comparing the performance ...
متن کاملAutomatic Video Pause Detection Filter
Increasing interest in multimedia research has been drawn upon the development of video indexing and content-based image retrieval techniques. In this report, we proposed several pause detection algorithms, which instead of searching for signi cant visual transitions, the algorithms detect signi cant pauses in video streams. A realization of the algorithmswas implemented using ImageTcl toolkit ...
متن کاملModel based speech pause detection
This paper presents two new algorithms for robust speech pause detection (SPD) in noise. Our approach was to formulate SPD into a statistical decision theory problem for the optimal detection of noise-only segments, using the framework of model-based speech enhancement (MBSE). The advantages of this approach are that it performs well in high noise conditions, all necessary information is availa...
متن کاملPAUSE: A Project Analyzer for a Unified Software Engineering Environment
Data collection is a central issue in empirical software engineering. This is especially true for independent techniques, which gather data automatically. The use and combination of data sources from different project domains is a prerequisite for the validation of many hypotheses. Capturing and combining data from heterogeneous and globally distributed sources is a non-trivial and time-consumi...
متن کاملEffects of Unnatural Pause on Speech Intelligibility
Effects of unnatural pausing on spoken sentence intelligibility by native and non-native listeners of American English were studied in a framework of 6 different signal-to-noise ratios. Performance between pause and non-pause sentences differed significantly for native listeners at 0 dB and –2 dB signal-tonoise ratios, but no significant difference was obtained from non-native listeners. The te...
