Artificial talkers and speech synthesis systems have long been used as a means of understanding both speech production and speech perception. The development of an airway modulation model is described that simulates the time-varying changes of the glottis and vocal tract, as well as acoustic wave propagation, during speech production. The result is a type of artificial talker that can be used to study various aspects of how sound is generated by humans and how that sound is perceived by a listener. The primary components of the model are introduced and simulation of words and phrases are demonstrated.
长期以来,人工发声器和语音合成系统一直被用作理解语音产生和语音感知的一种手段。本文描述了一种气道调制模型的开发,该模型模拟了语音产生过程中声门和声道的时变变化以及声波传播。其结果是一种可用于研究声音如何由人类产生以及听众如何感知该声音等各个方面的人工发声器。文中介绍了该模型的主要组成部分,并展示了单词和短语的模拟。
