Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for performing soft alignment in Gaussian mixture model (GMM) based and other vector transformations. Soft alignment may assign alignment probabilities to source and target feature vector pairs. The vector pairs and associated probabilities may then be used calculate a conversion function, for example, by computing GMM training parameters from the joint vectors and alignment probabilities to create a voice conversion function for converting speech sounds from a source speaker to a target speaker.
