SIVHA, visual speech synthesis system
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents SIVHA, a high quality Spanish speech synthesis system for severe disabled persons controlled by their eye movements. The system follows the eye-gaze of the patients along the screen and constructs the text with the selected words. When the user considers that the construction of the message has been finished, the synthesis of the message can be ordered. The system is divided in three modules. The first one determines the point of the screen the user is looking at, the second one is an interface to construct the sentences and the third one is the synthesis itself.

Effect of Visual Speech in Sign Speech Synthesis
This article investigates a contribution of synthesized visual speech. Synthesis of visual speech expressed by a computer consists in an animation in particular movements of lips. Visual speech is also necessary part of the non-manual component of a sign language. Appropriate methodology is proposed to determine the quality and the accuracy of synthesized visual speech. Proposed methodology is ...
متن کاملModeling Coarticulation in Synthetic Visual Speech
After describing the importance of visual information in speech perception and sketching the history of visual speech synthesis, we consider a number of theories of coarticulation in human speech. An implementation of Lo .. fqvist’s (1990) gestural theory of speech production is described for visual speech synthesis along with a description of the graphically controlled development system. We c...
متن کاملAutomatic Selection of Visemes for Image-Based Visual Speech Synthesis
An image-based approach provides an eficient way for visual speech synthesis. In an image-based visual speech synthesis system, a few lip images, namely visemes, are used for generating an arbitrary new sentence. Many approaches select visemes manually. In this papel; we propose a method for a system to automatically select visemes by minimizing the synthesis error The feasibility of the propos...

This paper presents new steps toward animation of precise articulation. The acquisition of audio-visual corpus for Czech and new method for parameterization of visual speech was designed to obtain exact speech data. The parameterization method is primarily suitable for training a data driven visual speech synthesis systems. The audio-visual corpus includes also specially designed test part. Fur...
متن کاملText-To-Visual Speech in Chinese Based on Data-Driven Approach
Text-To-Visual speech (TTVS) synthesis by computer can increase the speech intelligibility and make the human-computer interaction interfaces more friendly. This paper describes a Chinese text-to-visual speech synthesis system based on data-driven (sample based) approach, which is realized by short video segments concatenation. An effective method to construct two visual confusion trees for Chi...
