In this work we describe a new “syllable-like” speech unit that is suitable for concatenative speech synthesis. These units are automatically generated using a group delay based segmentation algorithm and acoustically correspond to the form C*VC* (C: consonant, V: vowel). The effectiveness of the unit is demonstrated by synthesizing natural-sounding speech in Tamil, a regional Indian language. Significant...
Automatic identification of bird calls without manual intervention has been a challenging task for meaningful research on the taxonomy and monitoring of bird migrations in ornithology. In this paper we apply several techniques used in speech recognition to the automatic identification of bird calls. A new technique which computes the ensemble average on the FFT spectrum is proposed for identification...
