Method and device for singing imitation

The invention provides a method for singing imitation. The method comprises the steps that corresponding audio materials of a source singer and a target singer are prepared; voice features of the source singer and voice features of the target singer are analyzed by using a STRAIGHT model; a joint GMM model of the source singer and the target singer is obtained through training by using a Gaussian mixture model; Gaussian transform functions based on inter-frame correlation are used in the tone conversion process; the tone of the source singer and the tone of the target singer are mixed in proportion; voice having the tone of the target singer is reconstructed by using the STRAIGHT model. The invention further provides a device for implementing the method. According to the method and device, the voice of the source singer can be converted into the voice having the tone of the target singer, converted tone quality is good, the tone is close to the tone of the target singer, and the tone features of the target singer can be added in proportion; especially, when the target singer is a music star, the self-confidence and interestingness of singing for the user at a digital audio and video place can be improved greatly, and meanwhile the level of the user for imitating the tone of the music star is improved.
