OPTIMUM SPEECH SIGNAL MAPPING TECHNIQUES

Abstract

Investigations of the analysis of speech and speech-like waveforms in terms of an exponential orthogonal function series were carrie out. he analysis nd resynthesis of speech was accompli hed via a digital computer programmed to operate upon digitized speech data. Connected speech consisting of two spoken sentences was successfully analyzed and resynthesized using the methods advocated and developed. The resynthesized sp ech is of such quality that both the phonetic information and the identity and quality of the speaker's voice are preserved. Thus the developed analysis me hods appear to h v significant relevance to future application in the analysis of speech for both automatic speech recognitio machines and for speech compression com unications channels.
