Designing text-to-speech systems capable of producing natural sounding speech segments
in different Indian languages is a challenging and ongoing problem. Due to the large …

Speech Synthesis deals with artificial production of speech and a text-to-speech system
(TTS) in this aspect converts natural language text into a spoken waveform or speech. There …

Speech synthesis is the process of converting written text into machine-generated synthetic
speech. Concatenative speech synthesis systems form utterances by concatenating pre …

Speech the vocalized form of human communication has achieved tremendous research
outcomes today. The effort of researchers made it possible to reproduce human speech …

Several text-to-speech (TTS) systems are available today for languages such as English,
Japanese, and Chinese, but still Indian languages are lacking behind in terms of good …

In a text-to-speech system, spoken utterances are automatically produced from text. In this
paper, we present a corpus-driven Tamil text-to-speech (TTS) system based on the …

The primary objective of this paper is to provide an overview of existing Concatenative Text-
To-Speech synthesis techniques. Concatenative speech synthesis can be broadly …

An unrestricted text-to-speech system is expected to produce a speech signal,
corresponding to the given text in a language, that is highly intelligible to a human listener …

In this work we describe the design of a syllable based concatenative waveform synthesizer
for Indian languages. A syllable-like unit is chosen primarily because Indian languages are …
