Development of Text-to-Speech Synthesizer for Pali Language
Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2016, Vol 18, Issue 3
Abstract
Abstract : We introduced a new method for Text-To-Speech (TTS) synthesis for Pali language. We discuss the efforts in collecting speech database of Pali language and relevant design issues in development of TTS system.This system is based on unit selection concatenative speech synthesis using phonemes, syllables and words as an elementary unit for Pali speech synthesis. The speech units picked by the selection algorithm optimally. An important advantage of this approach leads to reduced prosody mismatch and spectral discontinuity that occurs syllable concatenation. The results obtained from the proposed system are far superior as compared to the traditional unit based Text-To-Speech system. The most important output of this system is the improvednaturalness and intelligible synthesized speech
