Speech Conductor Team Six (see below)
Final Report, August 12th, 2005
2
Aims A gesture interface for driving (“conducting”) a text to speech synthesis system Gesture interpretation algorithms and speech signal modification algorithms Real time modification of voice synthesis Formant-based and text-to-speech syntheses Add expression and emotion to the speech flow 11/19/2018
3
Two Tasks Baby Synthesizers Text-to-speech
Real time controlled full voice source models and basic vocal tract model - formant synthesis Pure expression without words Text-to-speech Real time gestural control of intonation English, French 11/19/2018

TASK 1: Baby Synthesizer
Elaborated voice source models, including aperiodicities, effort, pressure, pitch and intensity Time domain (LF) vs spectral domain (CALM) models (Glove + keys) vs (keyboard + pedal + sliders) 11/19/2018

T1&T2: Conclusions Test Max vs Pure Data
Compare time domain vs spectral domain source models Compare input devices (glove, keyboard, sliders, pedals, joysticks, data spoon) Multi-lingual synthesis (baby, English, French…) 11/19/2018
