    • Design of syllable-based speech segmentation methods for text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis system for Gujarati 

      Talesara, Swati (Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology, 2013)
      Text-to-speech (TTS) synthesizer has been proved to be an aiding tool for many visually challenged people for reading through hearing feedback. Although there are TTS synthesizers available in English and other languages ...

    • Objective evaluation of speech quality of text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis systems 

      Sailor, Hardik Bhupendra (Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology, 2013)
      Since the use of Text-to-Speech (TTS) technology is increasing, there is a high demand of TTS system that can produce natural and intelligible voice in any environments. In order to improve speech synthesis system, synthesized ...

    • Phonetic segmentation: unsupervised approach 

      Vachhani, Bhavikkumar Bhagvanbhai (Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology, 2013)
      Phonetic segmentation can find its potential application for Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and Text-to-Speech (TTS) Synthesis systems. In this thesis, we propose use of different spectral features viz., Mel Frequency ...

    • Replay spoof detection using handcrafted features 

      Tapkir, Prasad Anil (Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology, 2018)
      In the past few years, there has been noteworthy demand in the use of Automatic Speaker Verification (ASV) system for numerous applications. The increased use of the ASV systems for voice biometrics purpose comes with ...

    • Speech enhancement using microphone array for hands-free speech applications 

      Vichare, Chirag Vishwas (Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology, 2004)
      This thesis addresses the problem of multi-microphone speech enhancement using GSVD (Generalized singular value decomposition) based optimal filtering algorithm. This algorithm does not require any sensitive geometric ...

    • Vocal tract length normalization for automatic speech recognition 

      Sharma, Shubham (Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology, 2014)
      Various factors affect the performance of Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems. In this thesis, speaker differences due to variations in vocal tract length (VTL) are taken into account. Vocal Tract Length Normalization ...
