摘要

This paper proposes an algorithm for speech parameter generation from HMMs which include the dynamic features. The performance of speech recognition based on HMMs has been improved by introducing the dynamic features of speech. Thus we surmise that, if there is a method for speech parameter generation from HMMs which include the dynamic features, it will be useful for speech synthesis by rule. It is shown that the parameter generation from HMMs using the dynamic features results in searching for the optimum state sequence and solving a set of linear equations for each possible state sequence. We derive a fast algorithm for the solution by the analogy of the RLS algorithm for adaptive filtering. We also show the effect of incorporating the dynamic features by an example of speech parameter generation.
