We thus redefine the emotion labeling problem by shifting it from a traditional classification model to an ordinal classification one, where discrete emotions are arranged in a sequential order according to their valence levels.

When used in a cross-lingual setting, acoustic features are initially produced with a native speaker of the target language and then voice conversion is applied by the same model in order to convert these features to the target speaker's voice.

A text-to-speech (TTS) model typically factorizes speech attributes such as content, speaker and prosody into disentangled representations. Recent works aim to additionally model the acoustic conditions explicitly, in order to disentangle the primary speech factors, i. e. linguistic content, prosody and timbre from any residual factors, such as recording conditions and background noise. This paper proposes unsupervised, interpretable and fine-grained noise and prosody modeling.

Existing singing voice synthesis models (SVS) are usually trained on singing data and depend on either error-prone time-alignment and duration features or explicit music score information.

This method enables us to train our model in an unlabeled multispeaker dataset as well as use unseen speaker embeddings to copy a speaker's voice.

This paper presents a method for phoneme-level prosody control of F0 and duration on a multispeaker text-to-speech setup, which is based on prosodic clustering.

Subsequently, we fine-tune the model with very limited data of a new speaker's voice in either a seen or an unseen language, and achieve synthetic speech of equal quality, while preserving the target speaker's identity.
