Özet:

 



This study is on hardware implementation of the Turkish text-to-speech
(TTS) synthesis with a voice synthesizer card. Here, a fully functional TTS
system, capable of synthesizing every Turkish text, including abbreviations,
numbers, etc. is designed and implemented. The system is additionally enriched
by applying some prosodic attributes for more intelligible and natural speech
production. A set of rules required for proper pronunciation and stress
patterns are precisely defined in a lexicon utilized for synthesizing Turkish
speech. Performance of the developed system is assessed by the Mean Opinion
Score (MOS) test. An average score of 3.8 out of 5 is achieved. It indicates
that the proposed synthesizer can be successfully integrated to many practical
Turkish TTS applications.
