[hts-users:00900] HTS-2.1alpha

["Heiga ZEN (Byung Ha CHUN)" <zen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I'd like to release the alpha version of HTS-2.1 and its demonstration.
You can download them from 


http://hts.sp.nitech.ac.jp/archives/2.1alpha/HTS-2.1alpha_for_HTK-3.4.tar.bz2
http://hts.sp.nitech.ac.jp/archives/2.1alpha/HTS-demo_CMU-ARCTIC-SLT.tar.bz2


New features of HTS-2.1alpha are as follows:

- Bug fixes
- 64-bit compile
- HMGenS supports the speech parameter generation algorithm considering GV
- Add command "DM" to HHEd, which deletes an existing macro from MMF

For details, please refer to ChangeLog and README included in this release.


This is the *alpha* version, it may (must?) contain bugs.
Any bug reports and comments are highly welcome.
The final release will additionally provide HSMM training/adaptation and CSMAPLR.
It will be available in March 2008.

Best regards,

Heiga ZEN (Byung Ha CHUN)
