SAPWindows - towards a versatile modular articulatory synthesizer
António Teixeira, Luís M. Silva, Roberto Sanchiño Martínez, F. Vaz · 2004
A new modular articulatory synthesizer, called SAPWindows, is described. The paper presents generic information regarding the synthesizer structure, currently available models, and a description of the SAPWindows application and its user interface. The implementation of an object-oriented design allows the inclusion of several articulatory models, and the enhancement and creation of new models for improving quality. A comprehensive acoustic model and a new interactive glottal source have already been implemented.
