| Abstract(in English) | It is difficult to systematically explain the relationship between tones and the impressions people have of them. In this paper, we have used a conditional variational autoencoder (CVAE)to generate tones based on the impressions that humans evoke.We aim to expand the variation of tones represented, and the model was extended based on the idea that temporal changes in waveform amplitude are important for the recall of impressions. Therefore, we separated the model into a waveform formed by the overtone composition ratio and envelope information, which is the temporal variation of the amplitude, and each was learned by the CVAE. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated through listening experiments with subjects. |
