摘要:
语音库裁剪或语音库去冗余,是大语料库语音合成技术的一个重要问题.提出了虚拟不定长替换的概念,以弥补不定长的损失.结合合成使用变体的频度,构建了语音库裁剪算法StaRp-VPA.该算法能够以任意比例裁剪语音库.实验表明:当裁剪率小于50%时,合成自然度几乎没有下降;当裁剪率大于50%时,合成自然度也不会严重降低.

Virtual Non-Uniform Synthesis Instances Pruning Approach for Corpus-Based Speech Synthesis System
ZHANG Wei,WU Xiao-Ru,ZHAO Zhi-Wei,WANG Ren-Hua
Abstract:
Tailoring voice font, or pruning redundant synthesis instances, is an important issue of scalable Corpus-based Text To Speech (TTS) system. However, pruning redundant synthesis instances, usually results in the loss of non-uniform. In order to solve this problem, the concept of virtual non-uniform is proposed. According to this concept and the synthesis frequency of each instance, an algorithm named StaRp-VPA is constructed to make TTS scalable to hardware. In experiments, the naturalness scored by Mean Opinion Score (MOS) remains almost unchanged when less than 50% instances are pruned off, and the MOS does not severely degrade when the reduction rate is above 50%.
Key words:  speech synthesis  text to speech  pruning redundant synthesis instances  scalable speech synthesis system
