Syllable Based Indian Language Text to Speech System
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper describes the Text-To-Speech System for four of the Indian Languages namely, Hindi, Odiya, Bengali and Telegu. In this system we have taken care of the articulation as well as co-articulation system. Earlier we have developed the Text-To-Speech (TTS) system for Odiya and Hindi. For this we have selected the phonetic units of the languages from many spoken vocabulary and then have concatenated the appropriate phones to get the TTS systems. This has inherited the problem of concatenation junctions and time delay in concatenating larger units in case of generating polysyllables. To overcome these problems we have made the syllable based concatenation of the speech units for the Odiya TTS system. Observing the success we have tried this for the other three languages like Hindi, Bengali and Telegu as people of these languages are available with us in our place of research.
