METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR SYNTHESIZING SPEECH AUDIO

A computer-implemented method for synthesizing speech audio includes obtaining a grammatical profile defining an input text of actual words as a function of at least syllable-occurrence rates and syllable-count-per-word rates; generating a dictionary of pseudo-words having the syllable-count-per-wor...

Zusammenfassung:	A computer-implemented method for synthesizing speech audio includes obtaining a grammatical profile defining an input text of actual words as a function of at least syllable-occurrence rates and syllable-count-per-word rates; generating a dictionary of pseudo-words having the syllable-count-per-word rates, each pseudo-word consisting of one syllable or concatenated syllables selected from the input text, wherein substantially all of the pseudo-words are not actual words; constructing an output text product having the grammatical profile, the output text product comprising at least one sentence consisting of one or more pseudo-words selected from the dictionary; and synthesizing speech audio using the output text product.
