Evaluation of Hidden Semi-Markov Models Training Methods for Greek Emotional Text-to-Speech Synthesis

This paper describes and evaluates four different HSMM (hidden semi-Markov model) training methods for HMM-based synthesis of emotional speech. The first method, called emotion-dependent modelling, uses individual models trained for each emotion separately. In the second method, emotion adaptation modelling, at first a model is trained using neutral speech, and thereafter adaptation is performe...

Gender Based Emotion Recognition System for Telugu Rural Dialects Using Hidden Markov Models

Automatic emotion recognition in speech is a research area with a wide range of applications in human interactions. The basic mathematical tool used for emotion recognition is Pattern recognition which involves three operations, namely, pre-processing, feature extraction and classification. This paper introduces a procedure for emotion recognition using Hidden Markov Models (HMM), which is used...

Hidden Markov model-based speech emotion recognition

In this contribution we introduce speech emotion recognition by use of continuous hidden Markov models. Two methods are propagated and compared throughout the paper. Within the first method a global statistics framework of an utterance is classified by Gaussian mixture models using derived features of the raw pitch and energy contour of the speech signal. A second method introduces increased te...

Improving Phoneme Sequence Recognition using Phoneme Duration Information in DNN-HSMM

Improving phoneme recognition has attracted the attention of many researchers due to its applications in various fields of speech processing. Recent research achievements show that using deep neural network (DNN) in speech recognition systems significantly improves the performance of these systems. There are two phases in DNN-based phoneme recognition systems including training and testing. Mos...
