  Abstract

To produce more natural speech in a Text-to-speech system, the processing of the prosody and duration must be preceded. For this, we applied a sequence of intonation rules to the sentences analyzed by natural language processing in advance, and then extracted the prosody and duration information by means of trial-and-error experiments. In this paper, a method is proposed to improve the naturalness in a Test-to-speech using this information. As the results, the Text-to-speech system proposed and implemented in this paper showed more natural speech synthesis than the system, which do not use this information, did.
