Articulatory analysis and synthesis of speech
Srinivas Parthasarathy, Juergen Schroeter, Cecil H. Coker, M. M. Sondhi · 2003
Recent progress in developing automatic articulatory analysis-synthesis procedures is described. The goal of the research is to find ways to fully exploit the advantages of articulatory modeling in producing natural-sounding speech from text and in low-bit-rate coding. Estimation of articulatory parameters by analysis-synthesis appears to be the most effective way of obtaining large amounts of data on human articulation. The problems and some solutions in developing articulatory analysis-synthesis schemes at the phoneme-level and frame-level are addressed.>
