简介："Contemporary speech synthesis is perceived as inadequate for general adoption for user interaction, largely because it rests on an inadequate model of human speech production and perception. This book reviews the underlying model, brings out areas of inadequacy and suggests how improvements might be made. It is argued that a greater understanding of the fine detail of speech will enable new research and application initiatives. The authors draw on their extensive experience in both theoretical and applied research to bring forward proposals for producing more natural sounding synthetic speech." "Developments in Speech Synthesis provides the basis for a comprehensive approach that will appeal to speech synthesis and language technology engineers specialising in building dialogue systems. It will also be a resource for computer science and engineering students at both advanced undergraduate and postgraduate levels, as well as researchers in the general field of speech synthesis."--BOOK JACKET.
