APPLICATION OF FUJISAKI MODEL TO DERIVE FEATURES TO CAPTURE PROSODIC INFORMATION.
Main Article Content
Abstract
The usefulness of a model for characterising pitch profiles in voice signals is critical in a
wide range of application areas, but it is particularly important in natural-sounding text-tospeech
systems, which are becoming increasingly popular. Despite its simplicity, the Fujisaki
model has demonstrated remarkable accuracy across a wide range of languages. A much
more difficult task is that of solving the inverse problem, i.e., extracting the input parameters
that formed an observed pitch contour, which has the potential to be very beneficial in the
field of automatic extraction of prosodic parameters from a given speech signal and could be
of considerable importance A tiny sample of 100 male and female utterances from the
natural, USS, and HTS systems were used to establish the Fujisaki Model parameters
speakers was used. Both natural and synthetic speech are produced using the same text
content.
