Originální abstrakt

In the paper, a parametric speech synthesizer, realized on a Motorola DSP56307 digital signal processor, is described, which forms part of a vocoder or a single-purpose system of text-to-speech synthesis. An advantage of this parametric model in TTS systems is the possibility of simple control of prosodic parameters (melody, speech speed and stress, microprosody, time division, etc.). Another possibility consists in totally replacing the speaker. If, for example, a male-voice inventory has been prepared, the male voice can be changed to the female or child voice by altering the parameters of the model and excitation. This parametric synthesizer forms the terminal part of the whole TTS system that should be implemented on the digital signal processor for automatic TTS synthesis.
