In this paper, an automatic prosodic phrase boundary labeling method for speech synthesis database is presented. This method can be divided into two stages: training stage and labeling stage. In training stage, context-dependent HMM, which is commonly adopted in the HMM-based parametric speech synthesis, is estimated using the training database with manual prosodic labeling. In labeling stage, the...
Prediction of the prosodic phrase boundary is a potent influence on the performance of speech recognition and voice synthesis systems. We propose a statistical approach using efficient learning features for the natural prediction of the Korean prosodic phrase boundary. These new features reflect factors that affect the generation of the prosodic phrase boundary better than existing learning features...
With the advent of prosody annotation standards such as tones and break indices (ToBI), speech technologists and linguists alike have been interested in automatically detecting prosodic events in speech. This is because the prosodic tier provides an additional layer of information over the short-term segment-level features and lexical representation of an utterance. As the prosody of an utterance...
