VOICE TRANSFORMATION ALLOWANCE DETERMINATION AND REPRESENTATION

Embodiments of the present systems and methods may provide techniques that provide the capability to automatically generate allowance intervals for voice personas that meet desired requirements for realism and fidelity. For example, a method for voice persona generation may be implemented in a computer system comprising a processor, memory accessible by the processor, and computer program instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor, the method comprising: displaying to a user, a plurality of user-selectable voice persona parameters that control features of a synthesized voice signal, and displaying, in conjunction with each of at least some of plurality of user-selectable voice persona parameters, voice transformation allowance intervals of the voice persona parameters, accepting from a user, a selection of at least one user-selectable voice persona parameter, and generating a synthesized voice signal based on the selected at least one user-selectable voice persona parameter.
