In text-to-speech systems, the linguistic context of a word or phrase must be obtained through linguistic analysis of the input text.
Pitch-synchronous waveform processing techniques for text-to-speech synthesis using diphones.
Note that each gesture corresponds to a static non-stop consonant phoneme generated by the text-to-speech synthesizer.
This allows us to achieve a better prosodic output quality than can be achieved in a plain text-to-speech system.

It's only a matter of time before someone runs the software on the output of a text-to-speech system.
The selection of professional announcers was guided by practical reasons: the database was created to develop a text-to-speech system, and voice quality and perfect diction were requested.
