Limitations to concatenative speech synthesis
This paper discusses techniques for determining the linguistic needs for open-domain synthesis by concatenative methods, and reports on the design and evaluation of a tool for collecting and balancing a speech corpus automatically, in order to ensure optimal coverage of the sounds required for synthesis within a given task-domain. Syntheticallygenerated utterances are used to prompt speakers, a...
متن کاملSpeech synthesis in dialogue systems
This paper argues that dialogue synthesis has special requirements. Users expect a high level of naturalness. We argue for good segmental rendering with the addition of pragmatic effects, such as emotion and attitude. We discuss the language model used, emphasising the phonological and phonetic levels essential to handle these effects. We draw on the theories of Cognitive Phonetics and Pragmati...
متن کاملThe USTC and iFlytek Speech Synthesis Systems
This paper introduces the speech synthesis systems developed by USTC and iFlytek for Blizzard Challenge 2007. These two systems are both HMM-based ones and employ similar training algorithms, where contextual dependent HMMs for spectrum, F0 and duration are estimated according to the acoustic features and contextual information of training database. However, different synthesis methods are adop...
متن کاملStudy on Unit-Selection and Statistical Parametric Speech Synthesis Techniques
One of the interesting topics on multimedia domain is concerned with empowering computer in order to speech production. Speech synthesis is granting human abilities to the computer for speech production. Data-based approach and process-based approach are the two main approaches on speech synthesis. Each approach has its varied challenges. Unit-selection speech synthesis and statistical parametr...
متن کاملTotal quality evaluation of speech synthesis systems
Based on the performance assessment of speech synthesis systems for Chinese the total quality evaluation of them has been carried out regular since 1994. The total quality evaluation includes speech intelligibility test at different levels (syllable, word and sentence), speech naturalness test and antiinterference ability test for phonetic module and text processing ability test for linguistic ...
