Title
Objective and subjective evaluation of an expressive speech corpus
Abstract
This paper presents the validation of the expressiveness of an acted oral corpus produced to be used in speech synthesis. Firstly, an objective validation has been conducted by means of automatic emotion identification techniques using statistical features extracted from the prosodic parameters of speech. Secondly, a listening test has been performed with a subset of utterances. The relationship between both objective and subjective evaluations is analyzed and the obtained conclusions can be useful to improve the following steps related to expressive speech synthesis.
