Multi-domain Text-to-Speech Synthesis by Automatic Text Classification

This paper describes a multi-domain text-to-speech (MD-TTS)synthesis strategy for generating speech among different domainsand so increasing the flexibility of high quality TTS systems.

Sumario:This paper describes a multi-domain text-to-speech (MD-TTS)synthesis strategy for generating speech among different domainsand so increasing the flexibility of high quality TTS systems. Tothat effect, the MD-TTS introduces a flexible TTS architecture thatincludes an automatic domain classification module, which allowsMD-TTS systems to be implemented by different synthesis strate-gies and speech corpus typologies. In this work, the performanceof a corpus-based MD-TTS system is subjectively validated bymeans of several perceptual tests
