Text-To-Speech Synthesis
 
Text-to-speech (TTS) is the generation of synthesized speech from text. Our goal is to make synthesized speech as intelligible, natural and pleasant to listen to as human speech and have it communicate just as meaningfully.

We have developed a novel TTS system, Naxpres, built on IBM's successful work in data-driven methodologies for speech recognition. Our system obtains its parameters through completely automated training on a few hours of speech data, which is acquired by recording a specially prepared script. During synthesis very small segments of recorded human speech are concatenated together to produce the synthesized speech.
