A description is presented of the authors' current research on automatic speech recognition
of continuously read sentences from a naturally-occurring corpus: office correspondence. …

Continuous speech was treated as if produced by a finite‐state machine making a transition
every centisecond. The observable output from state transitions was considered to be a …

Expressive text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis should contribute to the pleasantness, intelligibility,
and speed of speech-based human-machine interactions which use TTS. We describe a …

Human speech communication can be thought of as comprising two channels–the words
themselves, and the style in which they are spoken. Each of these channels carries information…

The Speech Recognition Group at IBM Research in Yorktown Heights has developed a real-time,
isolated-utterance speech recognizer for natural language based on the IBM Personal …

This paper introduces the IBM Expressive Speech Synthesis system. We describe recent
work in improving the quality of our baseline text-to-speech system as well as extending our …

Further results have been obtained on the recognition of continuously read sentences from
a natural language corpus of laser patents. The vocabulary is limited to the 1000 most …

This paper gives an overview of the IBM Large Vocabulary Continuous Speech Recognition
system used in the 1996 Hub4 evaluation. It describes the acoustic and language models …

The recognition of hand-printed numerals is studied on a broad experimental basis within
the constraints imposed by a raster scanner generating binary video patterns, a mixed …

We propose a novel method of generating a frequency warping function by mapping formant
parameters of the source speaker and the target speaker. Alignment and selection process …
