Low-Delay Singing Voice Alignment to Text
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present some ideas and preliminary results on how to move phoneme recognition techniques from speech to the singing voice to solve the low-delay alignment problem. The work focus mainly on searching the most appropriate Hidden Markov Model (HMM) architecture and suitable input features for the singing voice, and reducing the delay of the phonetic aligner without reducing its accuracy.

Music Information Retrieval from a Singing Voice Based on Verification of Recognized Hypotheses
Several music information retrieval (MIR) systems have been developed which retrieve musical pieces by the user’s singing voice. All of these systems use only melody information for retrieval, although lyrics information is also useful for retrieval. In this paper, we propose an MIR system that uses both melody and lyrics information in the singing voice. The MIR system verifies hypotheses outp...
متن کاملAutomatic Alignment of Music Audio and Lyrics
This paper proposes an algorithm for aligning singing in polyphonic music audio with textual lyrics. As preprocessing, the system uses a voice separation algorithm based on melody transcription and sinusoidal modeling. The alignment is based on a hidden Markov model speech recognizer where the acoustic model is adapted to singing voice. The textual input is preprocessed to create a language mod...
متن کاملReal-time audio-to-score alignment of singing voice based on melody and lyric information
Singing voice is specific in music: a vocal performance conveys both music (melody/pitch) and lyrics (text/phoneme) content. This paper aims at exploiting the advantages of melody and lyric information for real-time audio-to-score alignment of singing voice. First, lyrics are added as a separate observation stream into a template-based hidden semi-Markov model (HSMM), whose observation model is...
متن کاملSinging Voice Separation from Monaural Recordings
Separating singing voice from music accompaniment has wide applications in areas such as automatic lyrics recognition and alignment, singer identification, and music information retrieval. Compared to the extensive studies of speech separation, singing voice separation has been little explored. We propose a system to separate singing voice from music accompaniment from monaural recordings. The ...
متن کاملA Singing Voice Database in Basque for Statistical Singing Synthesis of Bertsolaritza
This paper describes the characteristics and structure of a Basque singing voice database of bertsolaritza. Bertsolaritza is a popular singing style from Basque Country sung exclusively in Basque that is improvised and a capella. The database is designed to be used in statistical singing voice synthesis for bertsolaritza style. Starting from the recordings and transcriptions of numerous singers...
