Abstract:
Nowadays, especially with the upswing of neural networks, speech synthesis is almost totally data driven. The goal of this thesis is to provide methods for automatic and unsupervised learning from data for expressive speech synthesis. In comparison to "ordinary" synthesis systems, it is more difficult to find reliable expressive training data, despite huge availability on sources like Internet. The main difficulty consists in the highly speaker- and situation-dependent nature of expressiveness, causing many and acoustically substantial variations. The consequences are, first, it is very diffic

Abstract:
Traditional and commercial speech synthesizers are incapable of synthesizing speech with proper emotion or prosody. Conveying prosody in artificially synthesized speech is difficult because of extreme variability in human speech. An arbitrary natural language sentence can have different meanings, depending upon the speaker, speaking style, context, and many other factors. Most concatenated speech synthesizers use phonemes, which are phonetic units defined by the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). The 50 phonemes in English are standardized and unique units of sound, but not expression. An

Defining the genre 'elegy' in the Anglo-Saxon cultural horizon and at the same time delimiting the boundaries within which some Old English lyrical compositions might be grouped is a far from trivial operation. Indeed, contrary to the classical tradition where the elegiac meter – a dactylic hexameter verse followed by a dactylic pentameter- represents the distinctive element of the genre, the Anglo-Saxon poetry lacks a characterising meter for the elegies.

Abstract:
Researchers have long been concerned with the effects of otitis media on speech and language acquisition because of the high correlation of a mild to moderate hearing loss during the time period that fluid (effusion) may be in the middle ear. Middle-ear effusion would prevent many of the auditory messages from accurately reaching the nervous system (Zinkus, 1986). Deprived of the ability to discern the subtle acoustic differences that provide information for phonetic contrasts, a child's speech acquisition may differ from children who do not experience such losses.

Language is the way in which individuals are able to express ideas, feelings, needs, expectations, and form relationships with others in their surrounding environment. A disruption in language development may negatively impact a child's social development. Research shows that children with language delays or disorders tend to have increased social and behavioral difficulties (Cantwell & Baker, 1977; Caulfield, Fischel, DeBaryshe, & Whitehurst, 1989). However, research has not examined temperament differences in young children with language delays or disorders. The question this study sought to

Abstract:
Cette thèse étudie les rapports entre l’expression d’attitudes agressives contrôlées et la perception de la dominance, à partir d’extraits de séances télévisées du conseil Municipal de Montreuil (93100) durant l’année 2013, période marquée par un climat politique vif et hostile. Un corpus a été constitué à partir d’extraits de parole spontanée de la Maire, Dominique Voynet, et de quatre de ses opposants. Les cinq locuteurs ont participé à l’enregistrement d’une relecture neutre du corpus de leurs propres extraits de parole (25 stimuli par locuteur) ainsi qu’à l’auto-évalua

Abstract:
Dans ces travaux de thèse nous abordons l'expressivité de la parole lue avec un type de données particulier qui sont les livres audio. Les livres audio sont des enregistrements audio d’œuvres littéraires fait par des professionnels (des acteurs, des chanteurs, des narrateurs professionnels) ou par des amateurs. Ces enregistrements peuvent être destinés à un public particulier (aveugles ou personnes mal voyantes). La disponibilité de ce genre de données en grande quantité avec une assez bonne qualité a attiré l'attention de la communauté scientifique en traitement automatique du langage et de l

Abstract:
Les travaux de cette thèse portent sur la modélisation des émotions pour la synthèse audiovisuelle expressive de la parole à partir du texte. Aujourd’hui, les résultats des systèmes de synthèse de la parole à partir du texte sont de bonne qualité, toutefois la synthèse audiovisuelle reste encore une problématique ouverte et la synthèse expressive l’est encore d’avantage. Nous proposons dans le cadre de cette thèse une méthode de modélisation des émotions malléable et flexible, permettant de mélanger les émotions comme on mélange les teintes sur une palette de couleurs.
