摘要翻译：
提出了一种用于高质量语音分析/合成的F0和浊音状态估计算法。这个问题是从一个不同的角度来处理的，即建模特征提取器在噪声下的行为，而不是直接建模语音信号。在时频局部性假设下，利用Monte-Carlo模拟产生的人工数据训练高斯混合模型(GMM)来表征提取特征与目标F0的联合分布。然后，训练好的GMM可以用来在预测的F0上生成一组条件分布，然后将这些分布组合起来，并通过Viterbi算法进行后处理，以给出最终的F0轨迹。对CSTR和CMU北极语音数据库的评价表明，该方法在全合成数据上训练，达到了比现有方法更低的粗差率。

英文摘要：
  A F0 and voicing status estimation algorithm for high quality speech analysis/synthesis is proposed. This problem is approached from a different perspective that models the behavior of feature extractors under noise, instead of directly modeling speech signals. Under time-frequency locality assumptions, the joint distribution of extracted features and target F0 can be characterized by training a bank of Gaussian mixture models (GMM) on artificial data generated from Monte-Carlo simulations. The trained GMMs can then be used to generate a set of conditional distributions on the predicted F0, which are then combined and post-processed by Viterbi algorithm to give a final F0 trajectory. Evaluation on CSTR and CMU Arctic speech databases shows that the proposed method, trained on fully synthetic data, achieves lower gross error rates than state-of-the-art methods.
