(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 ...
Person recognition using humming, singing and speech
(Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology, 2013)
In this thesis, person recognition system is designed for three different speech-related biometric signals, i.e., humming, singing and normal speech. As humming is nasalised sound, we have approached Mel filterbank-based ...
Phonetic segmentation: unsupervised approach
(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 ...
