We have been conducting research on a high-quality speech synthesis system for automatic audio broadcasting. We propose a method for generating manuscripts for speech database to synthesize definite form sentences.
We are developing a tool that can synthesize concatenate word speech and correct its degradation in order to make it broadcasting quality. In this study, several correction functions in were introduced into this tool. It is available to investigat...
