Abstract

La presente invencion se refiere a un método para síntesis de habla que emplea una base de datos de elementos acusticos, que se establece a partir de secuencias fonéticas que ocurren en un intervalo de una señal de habla, al establecer la base de datos, se determinan trayectorias por cada una de las secuencias fonéticas que contienen un segmento fonético que corresponde a un fonema particular. Luego se identifica una region de tolerancia con base en una concentracion de trayectorias que corresponden a diferentes secuencias de fonema. Los elementos acusticos para la base de datos se forman a partir de porciones de las secuencias fonéticas, al identificar puntos de corte en las secuencias fonéticas que corresponden a puntos en tiempo sobre las trayectorias respectivas proximas a la region de tolerancia. De esta manera, es posible concatenar los elementos acusticos que tienen fonemas de union comunes tal que las discontinuidades perceptibles en los fonemas de union se minimizan. También se describen métodos computacionalmente simples y rápidos para determinar la region de tolerancia.
