Download or read book Articulatory Speech Synthesis from the Fluid Dynamics of the Vocal Apparatus written by Stephen Levinson and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2012 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Addresses the problem of articulatory speech synthesis based on computed vocal tract geometries and the basic physics of sound production in it. Unlike conventional methods based on analysis/synthesis using the well-known source filter model, this volume treats the entire vocal apparatus as one mechanical system that produces sound by means of fluid dynamics.
