A Simple Malay Speech Synthesizer Using Syllable Concatenation Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
A Malay speech synthesizer system will be discussed. This paper will cover the available Malay speech synthesis system, the underlying structure of our system, brief description of crucial modules, general evaluation of the system, the proposed enhancement and future work of Malay text-to-speech system in Computer-Aided Translation Unit (UTMK). The objective is to highlight how our system works and how to improve its performance. We would also enlighten our future paradigm in the text-to-speech research at UTMK.

Restricted Domain Malay Speech Synthesizer Using Syntax-Prosody Representation
The speech synthesis approach required in restricted domain speech application is a synthesizer that has high quality like the speech output of ‘slot-filler’ approach but have at least the least flexibility of the ‘genuine’ speech synthesizer. Thus, in this research study, we propose an alternative approach of creating a speech synthesizer to be used in a restricted domain speech application. I...
متن کاملSyllabification Algorithm based on Syllable Rules Matching for Malay Language
In this paper, we present a new syllabification algorithm for Malay language. Syllabification is the process to extract or divide syllable from words. Syllabification process is language dependent where each language can have its own set of syllable structure. Syllabication is an important component in speech synthesizer, speech recognition and transliteration system. Syllabification algorithms...

In [2] we have presented a subsystem for text-to-speech (TTS) conversion for macedonian language as a part of a system for support of humans with damaged eyesight [1]. In this paper we present the speech synthesizer which is part of the TTS conversion subsystem. It's based on timedomain syllable concatenation. A novel module for duration and fundamental frequency (F0) modification is introduced...
متن کاملAn Unit Selection based Hindi Text To Speech Synthesis System Using Syllable as a Basic Unit
Concatenative speech synthesis using phoneme, di-phone and allophone as an elementary unit for Hindi speech synthesis requires significant quality improvement. The naturalness of the state of the art waveform synthesizer is attributed due to the use of syllable as a basic unit. The primary reason for choosing the syllable as a basic unit is that the Indian languages are syllable centered. This ...
