Generating Vocal Signal Sources
Journal Title: RECENT - Year 2011, Vol 12, Issue 33
Abstract
During last decade speech technology becomes more and more used in fields like: telecommunication and automated dialog systems. The speech technology is developed based on the knowledge of signal processing and comprises two principal areas: automatic speech recognition and speech synthesis. As in any other technology, in speech technology the high performances are obtained based on the quality of the implemented algorithms (method that is used and efficiency). Present paper tries to cover the main methods used to generate a synthetic fundamental vocal signal and to underline the appropriate method for different type of applications.
