SPEAK: Speech Processing for Enhanced Accent Kinetics

A deep learning-based system for many-to-many accent conversion, preserving speaker identity while transforming accent characteristics.

Project Overview

SPEAK is designed to effectively disentangle and manipulate accent characteristics of speech without affecting the speaker's unique vocal attributes or the intended message. The system addresses both phonetic variations and prosodic features that differ across accents.

Features

  • Many-to-many accent conversion
  • Speaker identity preservation
  • Phonetic and prosodic feature manipulation
  • Real-time processing capabilities
  • Comprehensive evaluation framework

Setup Instructions

  1. Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/RowanRama/SPEAK.git
cd SPEAK
  1. Create and activate the conda environment:
conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate speak
  1. Install additional dependencies (if needed):
pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

[Usage instructions will be added as the project develops]

Datasets

The project utilizes the following datasets:

  • Speech Accent Archive
  • L2-ARCTIC corpus
  • LJSpeech dataset
  • LibriTTS

Evaluation Metrics

  • Speaker Similarity (SSIM, Cosine Similarity)
  • Accent Accuracy (Perceptual Assessment)
  • Phonetic Accuracy (WER, PER)
  • Prosody Analysis (F0 contours, duration metrics)
  • Human Subjective Evaluation (MOS)
