摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a voice text set creating technique capable of generating a voice text set for optimizing the coverage of phoneme string and prosodic features even when pronounced with a tone other than reading tone.;SOLUTION: A parameter distribution conversion function which converts a parameter distribution obtained from natural voice data of reading tone into a parameter distribution obtained from natural voice data of a target X-tone is previously stored; voice synthesis processing using voice text set candidates is executed by a voice synthesis program to obtain a predetermined parameter from voice synthesis data; the obtained parameter distribution is converted by using the parameter distribution conversion function; and the voice text set candidates are evaluated by using the converted parameter distribution.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT
