Applying the harmonic plus noise model in concatenative speech synthesis.

Applying the harmonic plus noise model in concatenative speech synthesis.

This paper describes the application of the harmonic plus noise model (HNM) for concatenative text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis. In the context of HNM, speech signals are represented as a time-varying harmonic component plus a modulated noise component. The decomposition of a speech signal into these t...
