Social Adaptation - When Software Gives Users a Voice

Adaptive systems are characterized by the ability to monitor changes in their volatile world and react to monitored changes when needed. The ultimate goal of adaptation is that users’ requirements are always met correctly and efficiently. Adaptation is traditionally driven by the changing state of the system internal and its surrounding environment. Such state should be monitored and analyzed t...

Neural Voice Cloning with a Few Samples

Voice cloning is a highly desired feature for personalized speech interfaces. Neural network based speech synthesis has been shown to generate high quality speech for a large number of speakers. In this paper, we introduce a neural voice cloning system that takes a few audio samples as input. We study two approaches: speaker adaptation and speaker encoding. Speaker adaptation is based on fine-t...

Tucson's OpEd Project Expands Reach, Gives Voice to Women Faculty

"It's a wonderful opportunity to improve your writing and communication skills, and learn how to effectively join the global conversation and influence public discourse," said Melanie Hingle , assistant professor of nutritional sciences [3] and public health, who is part of the project.
