Abstract:

In this paper, speech synthesis directly from the processed Short-Time Fourier Transform Magnitude (STFTM) using the LSEE-MSTFTM algorithm [6,7] is compared to more conventional algorithms for several speech processing applications. For the applications considered, the most improvement occurs for time-scale modification of multiple speaker speech and noisy speech since these input signals are not well modeled by the analysis/synthesis system used for comparison. However, for the applications of speech synthesis from speech model parameters, time-scale modification of clean speech, speech enhancement by spectral subtraction, and helium speech enhancement, significant improvement is not gained by using the LSEE-MSTFTM algorithm. Significantly better results are not obtained since a good STFT phase estimate is available and employed in the conventional approaches to these applications.
