HTS voices for GalateaTalk
December 29, 2006
An HTS voice for GalateaTalk trained by using 450 utterances of
the Nitech database for speech synthesis "Nitech JP m001 ATR503"
is released as a part of HMM-based Speech Synthesis System (HTS)
version 2.0 (http://hts.ics.nitech.ac.jp/). The HTS voice can
be used as a voice of GalateaTalk, which is a speech synthesis
module of an open-source toolkit for anthropomorphic spoken
dialogue agents developed in Galatea project
(http://hil.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/~galatea/), without any other HTS
tools.
