ABSTRACT

The project title is Voice Master . It is used for speech interfaces. A neural
voice-mimicking system synthesizes voice from a few audio samples.
Evaluating the quality of mimicked speech has started more attention nowadays
since it may affect the speaker verification systems as in spoof attacks. In this
project, we introduce a neural voice cloning system that takes a few audio
samples as input. We study two approaches: speaker adaptation and speaker
encoding.

Speaker adaptation is based on fine-tuning a multi-speaker generative model


with a few cloning samples. Speaker encoding is based on training a separate
model to directly infer a new speaker embedding from cloning audios and to be
used with a multi-speaker generative model. In terms of the naturalness of the
speech and its similarity to the original speaker, both approaches can achieve
good performance, even with very few cloning audios. While speaker
adaptation can achieve better naturalness and similarity, the cloning time or
required memory for the speaker encoding approach is significantly less,
making it favorable for low-resource deployment.

ER Diagram stands for Entity Relationship Diagram, also known as ERD is a


diagram that displays the relationship of entity sets stored in a database. In other
words, ER diagrams help to explain the logical structure of databases.
ER diagrams are created based on three basic concepts: entities, attributes and
relationships.
ER Diagrams contain different symbols that use rectangles to represent entities,
ovals to define attributes and diamond shapes to represent relationships.
At first look, an ER diagram looks very similar to the flowchart. However, ER
Diagram includes many specialized symbols, and its meanings make this model
unique.
The purpose of ER Diagram is to represent the entity framework infrastructure.

IMPLEMENTATION

Implementing a human voice mimicking system involves several steps and


components. Here's a general outline of the process:

Data Collection: Gather a large dataset of audio recordings containing


various human voices. You may use publicly available datasets or record your
own audio samples. Ensure the dataset covers a wide range of voice
characteristics, accents, and speech patterns.

Preprocessing: Clean and preprocess the audio data to remove any


background noise, normalize the audio levels, and standardize the format. This
step may involve techniques such as noise reduction, filtering, and resampling.

Feature Extraction: Extract relevant features from the audio data. Popular
features for voice mimicking include Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients
(MFCCs), pitch contour, energy, and formant frequencies. These features
capture important characteristics of the voice.

Model Training: Train a machine learning or deep learning model on the


preprocessed audio data and extracted features. Various models can be used,
including Hidden Markov Models (HMMs), Gaussian Mixture Models
(GMMs), or more advanced models like recurrent neural networks (RNNs),
convolutional neural networks (CNNs), or generative adversarial networks
(GANs).

Model Optimization: Fine-tune the trained model to improve its


performance. This step may involve techniques such as regularization,
hyperparameter tuning, and model architecture adjustments. It's important to

[- 29 -]
Voice Master

evaluate the model's performance on validation or test data to ensure it


generalizes well to unseen voices.

Text-to-Speech Synthesis: Integrate a text-to-speech synthesis system


with the voice mimicking model. This component converts text input into
corresponding synthesized speech using the mimicked voice. Several text-to-
speech synthesis techniques are available, including concatenative synthesis,
parametric synthesis, and neural network-based synthesis.

User Interface: Develop a user interface to facilitate interaction with the


voice mimicking system. This can be a command-line interface, web- based
interface, or a dedicated application. The interface should allow users to input
text and receive the synthesized speech in the selected voice.

Deployment: Deploy the system on the desired platform or environment.


This could be a local machine, a server, or a cloud-based infrastructure. Ensure
the system is scalable, robust, and reliable.

Continuous Improvement: Monitor the system's performance and gather


user feedback to make necessary improvements. This may involve collecting
user ratings, addressing system limitations, and incorporating new techniques
or models as they become available.

limited samples.

 Equal error-rate (EER) used as performance metric for measuring


similarity.

 Tests if audios are from same speaker for identity verification.

 also help in notifying the students so that they can participate in the
events which they like to join.
