Accordingly, speech conversion techniques are now of growing interest among researchers.  HMM/GMM-based methods are widely used, but entail several major problems when viewed from the prosody perspective; prosodic features cover a wider time span than segmental features and their frame-by-frame processing is not always appropriate. The book offers a good overview of state-of-the-art studies on prosody in speech synthesis.  . 410 0$aProsody, Phonology and Phonetics,$x2197-8719 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xPhonology 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xSyntax 606 $aSignal processing 606 $aCommunication 606 $aPhonology and Phonetics 606 $aSyntax 606 $aSignal, Speech and Image Processing 606 $aMedia and Communication 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xPhonology. 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xSyntax. 615 0$aSignal processing. 615 0$aCommunication. 615 14$aPhonology and Phonetics. 615 24$aSyntax. 615 24$aSignal, Speech and Image Processing . 615 24$aMedia and Communication. 676 $a401.43 702 $aHirose$b Keikichi$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aTao$b Jianhua$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484070303321 996 $aSpeech Prosody in Speech Synthesis: Modeling and generation of prosody for high quality and flexible speech synthesis$92551871 997 $aUNINA
