[hts-users:00521] Re: HTS question about creating a new voice for the Catalan language


Hi,
 
what if I use the same question file provided with the demo but just adapting the phones to my pohoneset? Did someone try such a thing? If this makes sense, I will do it to see if the voice quality improves.
 
Best regards,
 
Oriol

Questions are definitely phoneset dependent.
You should adjust them for your phoneset.
Currently no automatic method is provided, however, you can ask people in speech recognition area to give their questions about phones.
A lot of speech recognition systems use decision tree-clustered triphone HMMs as their acoustic models,
so speech recognition researchers may have questions about phones.
