Abstract
A
Text-To-Speech (TTS) system is a computer application that is capable of
converting typed text into speech. This paper contains description of working
of a TTS system along with architecture of the system and various available TTS
systems for Indian Languages with comparison of these systems on the basis of
the methods used by them for speech synthesis. TTS system generally involves
two steps, text processing and speech generation. Synthetic speech may be used
in several applications, like, telecommunications services, language education,
aid to handicapped persons, fundamental and applied research etc. TTS involves
many challenges during the process of conversion of text to speech. The most
important qualities expected from speech synthesis system are naturalness and
intelligibility. The general architecture of a TTS system and different
waveform generation methods are discussed in this paper. A scheme for
developing a TTS system for Punjabi Language is also included in this paper.
