In this paper, we study the role of a recently proposed feature enhancement technique in building HMM-based synthetic voices using reverberant speech data. The feature enhancement technique studied combines the advantages of missing data imputation and non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) based methods in cleaning up the reverberant features. Speaker adaptation of a clean average voice using noisy data is generally better than building a speaker dependent voice using the noisy data. In this paper, we show that the proposed feature enhancement technique can further improve the spectral match between the enhanced feature adapted voice and a clean speaker dependent voice.
