Efficient Methodology for Segmentation of Speech Signals in Text to Speech

This paper proposes a method for tuning the weights of unit selection cost functions in syllable based text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis system, two-stage feedforward neural network (FFNN) based approach for modeling fundamental frequency (F0) values of a sequence of syllables. Unrestricted Text To Speech System (TTS) is capable of synthesize different domain speech with improved quality. A clustering technique is used in annotated speech corpus that provides
