| Abstract(in English) | This paper describes a Japanese waveform-based speech synthesis that has been successfully developed for the ANSER(Automatic answer Network System for Electronic Request)system widely used for banking services. This method can provide highly intelligible synthesized speech comparable to natural voice. Its key features include a waveform dictionary containing specific waveforms for efficient pitch control, Japanese syllable unit-based waveform-CV, and efficient waveform concatenation based on signal interpolation. A high intelligibility of 90% was attained(compared with 79% for the current LSP-CVC method)in speech quality tests under the practical telephone network environment. |
