چکیده

In this paper, we describe a new approach, allowing as much as possible, an automatic extraction of the micromelodic information of the speech signal using the original curved of the fundamental frequency and its macromelodic curve obtained by MOMEL, the algorithm of MOdelisation MELodic. The results reinforce the idea that microprosodic effect exists and seems to be possible to be included in a prosodic generating unit by a simple model to provide improved naturalness in speech synthesis. KeywordsMOMEL, Micromelody, Fundamental Frequency, Arabic Standard.
