Abstract:Statistical parametric speech synthesis (SPSS) techniques of speech synthesis such as deep neural network (DNN) and hidden markov model (HMM) have grown popularity since last decade over the concatenative speech synthesis approaches by modelling excitation and spectral parameters of speech to synthesize the waveforms from the written text. Due to inappropriate acoustic modelling, speech synthesized using HMM-based speech synthesis sounds muffled. DNN tried to improve the acoustic model by replacing decision tr… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
