CASEIN: Cascading Explicit and Implicit Control for Fine-grained Emotion Intensity Regulation
Existing fine-grained intensity regulation methods rely on explicit control through predicted emotion probabilities. However, these high-level semantic probabilities are often inaccurate and unsmooth at the phoneme level, leading to bias in learning. Especially when we attempt to mix multiple emotion intensities for specific phonemes, resulting in markedly reduced controllability and naturalness of the synthesis. To address this issue, we propose the CAScaded Explicit and Implicit coNtrol framework (CASEIN), which leverages accurate disentanglement of emotion manifolds from the reference speech to learn the implicit representation at a lower semantic level. This representation bridges the semantical gap between explicit probabilities and the synthesis model, reducing bias in learning. In experiments, our CASEIN surpasses existing methods in both controllability and naturalness. Notably, we are the first to achieve fine-grained control over the mixed intensity of multiple emotions.

Plant and insect proteins support optimal bone growth and development; Evidences from a pre-clinical model
By 2050, the global population will exceed 9 billion, demanding a 70% increase in food production. Animal proteins alone may not suffice and contribute to global warming. Alternative proteins such as legumes, algae, and …
Robust Sequential Steady-State Analysis of Cascading Outages
Simulating potential cascading failures can be useful for avoiding or mitigating such events. Currently, existing steady-state analysis tools are ill-suited for simulating cascading outages as they do not model frequency…

We propose a novel computational toolbox that integrates Topological Data Analysis (TDA), Differential Box Counting (DBC), Multifractal Partition (MFP), and Local Binary Patterns (LBP), applied to time-lapse super-resolu…
Distributed Tracing for Cascading Changes of Objects in the Kubernetes Control Plane
Kubernetes is a container orchestration system that employs a declarative configuration management approach. In Kubernetes, each desired and actual state is represented by an ``object'', and multiple controllers autonomo…
