In this paper, new efforts to build text-to-speech synthesis systems (TTS) for Indian
languages is presented. The synthesisers are built around both concatenative speech …

This paper introduces Emilia, a speech corpus created to build a female voice in Spanish
spoken in Buenos Aires for the Aromo text-to-speech system. Aromo is a unit selection text …

Nowadays, unit selection based text-to-speech technology is the mainstream approach for
near natural speech synthesis systems. However, this is achieved at the expense of raised …

This paper presents a new method for the reduction of an existing speech database in order
to be used for domain independent embedded unit selection text-to-speech synthesis. The …

In order to reduce the footprint of concatenative speech synthesis systems for embedded
devices, a novel method for pruning redundant units is introduced in this work. Instead of …

This paper raises the issue of speech database reduction adapted to a specific domain for
Text-To-Speech (TTS) synthesis application. We evaluate several methods: a database …

Speech unit selection algorithms have the task to find a single sequence of speech units that
optimally fit the target transcription of an utterance that must be synthesized. In doing so …

This paper raises the issue of speech database reduction adapted to a specific domain for
Text-To-Speech (TTS) synthesis application. We evaluate several methods: a database …

Unit selection based text-to-speech systems can generally obtain high speech quality
provided that the database is large enough. In embedded applications, the related memory …
