Signal processing for concatenative synthesis

Abstract:For efficient control of pitch and duration in a synthesis system employinbg waveform concatenation, direct modificatino of pitch-period-sized samples of the speech signal is performed. This report describes the six-months work spent under an INT internship developing and extending the PSOLA module of the ITL dept 2 ChATR synthesiser. A version of the report was presented as part of the graduation requirement for Stage Ingenieur.
