| Abstract(in English) | The feature of the glide must be investigated for speech synthesis. In order to synthesize high quality speech, the synthesis system is required to reproduce the glide precisely. We proposed a new scheme to derive the characteristics of vowels from LSP parameters as well as compress information by using five-layer nonlinear sandglass type neural network. In our method, 1)SNN learns LSP parameters derived from the five vowels of isolated utterance. 2)The SNN transforms LSP parameters of vowel series to the nonlinear principal component. 3)The feature of the glide is analyzed as locus on the principal component plane. |
