Download or read book Text-to-Speech Synthesis written by Paul Taylor and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-02-19 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Text-to-Speech Synthesis provides a complete, end-to-end account of the process of generating speech by computer. Giving an in-depth explanation of all aspects of current speech synthesis technology, it assumes no specialised prior knowledge. Introductory chapters on linguistics, phonetics, signal processing and speech signals lay the foundation, with subsequent material explaining how this knowledge is put to use in building practical systems that generate speech. Including coverage of the very latest techniques such as unit selection, hidden Markov model synthesis, and statistical text analysis, explanations of the more traditional techniques such as format synthesis and synthesis by rule are also provided. Weaving together the various strands of this multidisciplinary field, the book is designed for graduate students in electrical engineering, computer science, and linguistics. It is also an ideal reference for practitioners in the fields of human communication interaction and telephony.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a machine to convert text into sounds that humans can understand as speech requires an enormous range of components, from abstract analysis of discourse structure to synthesis and modulation of the acoustic output. Work in the field is thus inherently interdisciplinary, involving linguistics, computer science, acoustics, and psychology. This collection of articles by leading researchers in each of the fields involved in text-to-speech synthesis provides a picture of recent work in laboratories throughout the world and of the problems and challenges that remain. By providing samples of synthesized speech as well as video demonstrations for several of the synthesizers discussed, the book will also allow the reader to judge what all the work adds up to -- that is, how good is the synthetic speech we can now produce? Topics covered include: Signal processing and source modeling Linguistic analysis Articulatory synthesis and visual speech Concatenative synthesis and automated segmentation Prosodic analysis of natural speech Synthesis of prosody Evaluation and perception Systems and applications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After alm ost three scores of years of basic and applied research, the field of speech processing is, at present, undergoing a rapid growth in terms of both performance and applications and this is fueHed by the advances being made in the areas of microelectronics, computation and algorithm design.Speech processing relates to three aspects of voice communications: -Speech Coding and transmission which is mainly concerned with man-to man voice communication. -Speech Synthesis which deals with machine-to-man communication. -Speech Recognition which is related to man-to-machine communication. Widespread application and use of low-bit rate voice codec.>, synthesizers and recognizers which are all speech processing products requires ideaHy internationally accepted quality assessment and evaluation methods as weH as speech processing standards so that they may be interconnected and used independently of their designers and manufacturers without costly interfaces. This book presents, in a tutorial manner, both fundamental and applied aspects of the above topics which have been prepared by weH-known specialists in their respective areas. The book is based on lectures which were sponsored by AGARD/NATO and delivered by the authors, in several NATO countries, to audiences consisting mainly of academic and industrial R&D engineers and physicists as weH as civil and military C3I systems planners and designers.

Download or read book Speech and Audio Signal Processing written by Ben Gold and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-08-23 with total page 684 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Speech and Audio Signal Processing published in 1999, it stood out from its competition in its breadth of coverage and its accessible, intutiont-based style. This book was aimed at individual students and engineers excited about the broad span of audio processing and curious to understand the available techniques. Since then, with the advent of the iPod in 2001, the field of digital audio and music has exploded, leading to a much greater interest in the technical aspects of audio processing. This Second Edition will update and revise the original book to augment it with new material describing both the enabling technologies of digital music distribution (most significantly the MP3) and a range of exciting new research areas in automatic music content processing (such as automatic transcription, music similarity, etc.) that have emerged in the past five years, driven by the digital music revolution. New chapter topics include: Psychoacoustic Audio Coding, describing MP3 and related audio coding schemes based on psychoacoustic masking of quantization noise Music Transcription, including automatically deriving notes, beats, and chords from music signals. Music Information Retrieval, primarily focusing on audio-based genre classification, artist/style identification, and similarity estimation. Audio Source Separation, including multi-microphone beamforming, blind source separation, and the perception-inspired techniques usually referred to as Computational Auditory Scene Analysis (CASA).

This book was released on 1963 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes research on speech analysis and synthesis during the period October 1, 1959 to September 30, 1963. The introduction of the report gives a general outline of the problems that were studies and indicates that the emphasis was on the search for the generative rules governing the production of speech. The work on speech synthesis included the modification and improvement of an existing electrical analog of the vocal tract and the design of a new synthesizer with improved capabilities. Experiments on the generation of several classes of speech sounds were carried out with the existing synthesizers. Techniques of reduction of speech spectra were developed, based on an analysis-by-synthesis approach. The properties of limited classes of natural speech events were studied both through acoustic analysis of the spectra and through direct examination of the articulatory processes. In the latter case both high-speed photography and cineradiographic techniques have been exploited. In addition, experimental investigations relating to the perception of speech and speechlike sounds have been carried out. (Author).

This book was released on 2018-07-30 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Study from the year 2017 in the subject Speech Science / Linguistics, grade: very good, , course: Computer Science, language: English, abstract: In this study a model-based speech synthesis prototype for Tigrinya spoken language idiom is developed in an integrated speech synthesis framework (Festival speech synthesis system). While the frontend of the framework is Graphemebased synthesizer, the backend is CLUSTERGEN Synthesizer which is an instance of statistical parametric speech synthesis. The under resourced linguistic nature of the language was the main reason to choose this framework. 249 Tigrinya graphemes were considered as phonemes independently; irrespective of its 32 phonological phonemes. For this study, 800 previously prepared sentences and rerecorded again in a recommended way is used as corpus. Amendments and additions to the adopted methodology was done. The whole prototype synthesis development was done automatically. A tenfold threshold method was used for training and testing of the prototype. The synthesized speech was android deployable prototype. This synthesized speech resulted a score of 5.82 using Mel Cepstral Distortion ( which is built-in objective measurement metric); while subjective evaluation resulted 4.5 and 4.3 out of 5 score, naturalness and intelligibility of the synthesized speech respectively. Both evaluations were interpreted as the synthesized speech was almost the same as natural human speech. Finally, future works were indicated.
