| Abstract(in English) | This paper presents a model for generating the vocal-tract spectrum based on an explicit model of the coarticulatory phenomena. The model receives a string of phonemic symbols for which the articulatory target is specified both in the spatial and temporal domains. The spatial target represents features of the articulatory state inherent in the articulation of each phoneme. The phonemic target constrains degrees-of-freedom of the articulatory parameters only partly and some freedoms are remained. Then the trajectory formation model of articulatory movements resolves this redundancy by smoothly interpolating the targets of adjacent phonemes. Thus, our model can represent the variability of articulatory movements from fixed target patterns. Finally, the vocal-tract spectrum is estimated using neural networks learned with the articulatory and acoustic data in advance. |
