Artificial production of human speech Automatic announcement A synthetic voice announcing an arriving train in Sweden. Problems playing this file? See media help. Speech synthesis is the artificial production of human speech. A computer system used for this purpose is called a speech ...
FreeTTS is an implementation of Sun's Java Speech API. FreeTTS supports end-of-speech markers. Gnopernicus uses these in a number of places: to know when text should and should not be interrupted, to better concatenate speech, and to sequence speech in different voices.
Deep learning speech synthesis refers to the application of deep learning models to generate natural-sounding human speech from written text (text-to-speech) or spectrum . Deep neural networks are trained using large amounts of recorded speech and, in the case of a text-to-speech system, the associated labels and/or input text.
WaveNet is a deep neural network for generating raw audio. It was created by researchers at London-based AI firm DeepMind.The technique, outlined in a paper in September 2016, [1] is able to generate relatively realistic-sounding human-like voices by directly modelling waveforms using a neural network method trained with recordings of real speech.
Gnuspeech is an extensible text-to-speech computer software package that produces artificial speech output based on real-time articulatory speech synthesis by rules. That is, it converts text strings into phonetic descriptions, aided by a pronouncing dictionary, letter-to-sound rules, and rhythm and intonation models; transforms the phonetic descriptions into parameters for a low-level ...
Speech synthesis includes text-to-speech, which aims to transform the text into acceptable and natural speech in real-time, [33] making the speech sound in line with the text input, using the rules of linguistic description of the text. A classical system of this type consists of three modules: a text analysis model, an acoustic model, and a ...
Text, Speech and Dialogue (TSD) is an annual conference involving topics on natural language processing and computational linguistics. The meeting is held every September alternating in Brno and Plzeň, Czech Republic. The first Text, Speech and Dialogue conference took place in Brno in 1998.
The reverse process is speech synthesis. Some speech recognition systems require "training" (also called "enrollment") where an individual speaker reads text or isolated vocabulary into the system. The system analyzes the person's specific voice and uses it to fine-tune the recognition of that person's speech, resulting in increased accuracy.
