ABSTRACT
A semantic-representation-to-speech system communicates orally the information given in a semantic representation. Such a system must Integrate a text generation module, a phonetic conversion module, a prosodic module and a speech synthesizer. We will see how the syntactic information elaborated by the text generation module is used for both phonetic conversion and prosody, so as to produce the data that must be supplied to the speech synthesizer, namely a phonetic chain including prosodic information.

Synthesis of the intonation of neutrally spoken Modern Standard Arabic speech
Acoustical analyses of the fundamental frequency (F"0) contours of neutrally spoken Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) speech types of declarative, imperative, exclamative, and interrogative nature showed that their pitch patterns are characterized by four ...
Controllable speech synthesis by learning discrete phoneme-level prosodic representations
AbstractIn this paper, we present a novel method for phoneme-level prosody control of F0 and duration using intuitive discrete labels. We propose an unsupervised prosodic clustering process which is used to discretize phoneme-level F0 and ...
