Realizace TTS jako systémového ovladače pro Microsoft Speech API
Přibilová, Anna ; Přibil, Jiří
The paper deals with implementation of voice modification in the Czech and Slovak text-to-speech /TTS/ system as Microsoft speech application programming interface /MS SAPI/ TTS engine based on diphone inventory. The original male voice database serves for creation of three derived databases with modification factors given by the average formant and pitch shift between male, female and childish voices. The source-filter model as well as the harmonic speech model, both with cepstral description, were used.

Frequency scale mapping methods for voice conversion
Přibilová, Anna
The research report compares several approcaches to frequency scale mapping for voice conversion. All the presented methods may be used for transformation of voice characteristics between male and female or childisch. The advantage of the proposed non-linear methods is possibility of their implementation in the text-to-speech systems with cepstral description because of the unchanged number of points of the modified speech spectrum envelope in FFT-based methods.
