Synopsis

This overview of the technology of speech synthesis and recognition techniques presents both computer output and input languages for synthesis and recognition, as well as coverage of the phonological aspects of language, the human speech process, the digital coding of speech and computer software. As a starting point for this volume, the authors use the phonetic aspects of the human language and the problems which hinder its full implementation and intelligent manipulation. Following a review of the best known techniques for digital speech coding, they take a conceptual look at function components of voice I/O systems, before describing two typical speech processing languages and the facilities they offer general users for voice synthesis and recognition. A further feature is the complete Pascal program for converting text to phonemes by following a set of rules.
