A response message from the operator is received in machine-intelligible form. The functioning of at least one component of the system is assessed from the messages. ... 09/28/06 - 20060217980 - Code conversion method and device A code conversion method for converting first code string data conforming to a first speech coding scheme into second code string data conforming to a second speech coding scheme has the steps of decoding the first code string data to generate a first decoded speech, correcting the signal characteristics of ... 08/24/06 - 20060190260 - Selecting an order of elements for a speech synthesis In a method for selecting an order of elements which are to be subject to a speech synthesis, a voice input including at least two elements is received, wherein the at least two elements have an arbitrary order. Thereupon, a search is caused in a database for an entry which ... 07/27/06 - 20060167693 - Method and apparatus for performing packet loss or frame erasure concealment The invention concerns a method and apparatus for performing packet loss or Frame Erasure Concealment (FEC) for a speech coder that does not have a built-in or standard FEC process. A receiver with a decoder receives encoded frames of compressed speech information transmitted from an encoder. A lost frame detector ... 07/27/06 - 20060167692 - Palette-based classifying and synthesizing of auditory information The subject invention leverages spectral “palettes” or representations of an input sequence to provide recognition and/or synthesizing of a class of data. The class can include, but is not limited to, individual events, distributions of events, and/or environments relating to the input sequence. The representations are compressed versions of the ... 07/27/06 - 20060167691 - Barely audible whisper transforming and transmitting electronic device The present inventions aims to transform, and later amplify, a barely audible whisper of a speaker's voice, received in a microphone within an electronic device capable of transforming and transmitting voice, in terms of its speech characteristics into a synthetic voice that closely mimics a non-whisper voice of the speaker. ... 06/08/06 - 20060122835 - Method and apparatus for reconstructing voice information A communication system includes a destination that receives voice samples and a voice parameter generated by a source. The destination uses the voice samples and voice parameter to reconstruct voice information in response to a packet loss. The destination may reconstruct voice information from multiple sources. ... 05/25/06 - 20060111908 - Data synthesis apparatus and program A data synthesis apparatus detects the start of a period of voice waveform data, stores the voice waveform data in a first storage device, starting with its part indicative of the start of the detected period. The apparatus stores in a second storage device musical-sound waveform data including information on ... 04/20/06 - 20060085194 - Speech synthesis apparatus and method, and storage medium Input text data undergoes language analysis to generate prosody, and a speech database is searched for a synthesis unit on the basis of the prosody. A modification distortion of the found synthesis unit, and concatenation distortions upon connecting that synthesis unit to those in the preceding phoneme are computed, and ... 04/06/06 - 20060074672 - Speech synthesis apparatus with personalized speech segments The present invention relates to a speech synthesis apparatus comprising:—means (102, 104) for inputting of natural speech,—means (106, 108, 110, 112, 113) for processing the natural speech to provide personalized speech segments (114),—means (118) for synthesizing of speech based on the personalized speech segments. ... 03/30/06 - 20060069565 - Compressed data processing apparatus and method and compressed data processing program A compressed data processing apparatus, a method thereof and a compressed data processing program that are capable of reducing a processing load and enhancing processing speed. A multitrack decompression apparatus 30 comprises compressed audio data read-in section 31, decompression processing sections 34, 35, and 37, and synthesis processing section 36. ... 03/16/06 - 20060059000 - Speech synthesis using concatenation of speech waveforms The invention relates to a method of synthesizing of a speech signal, the speech signal having at least a first speech unit and a second speech unit, the method comprising the steps of: providing a first speech unit signal, the first speech unit signal having an end interval, providing a ... 01/26/06 - 20060020467 - Acoustic signal transmission method and acoustic signal transmission apparatus The acoustic signal transmission method is based on generating a synthesized sound electrical signal by electrically synthesizing an audible sound signal and another signal different than the audible sound signal at the sending side, and transmitting the synthesized sound electrical signal, and extracting the another signal different than the audible ... 01/12/06 - 20060009975 - System and method for text-to-speech processing in a portable device A system and method for providing high-quality text-to-speech (TTS) output in a low-complexity device is disclosed. TTS output is generated by a TTS system that resides on a high-complexity device. The TTS output is transmitted from the high-complexity device to the low-complexity device for subsequent retrieval and playback. ... 01/05/06 - 20060004576 - Server device When a third database element for acquiring a second content of a second server connected to a channel is registered in a first database, a registration and deletion unit refers to a device description to determine whether the second server requires a transfer-preparation request before the content is transferred. If ... 12/01/05 - 20050267756 - Method and system for providing synthesized speech An approach providing the efficient use of speech synthesis in rendering text content as audio in a communications network. The communications network can include a telephony network and a data network in support of, for example, Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) services. A speech synthesis system receives a text string ... 09/15/05 - 20050203743 - Individualization of voice output by matching synthesized voice target voice The voice of a synthesized voice output is individualized and matched to a user voice, the voice of a communication partner or the voice of a famous personality. In this way mobile terminals in particular can be originally individualized and text messages can be read out using a specific voice. ... 06/23/05 - 20050137869 - Method supporting text-to-speech navigation and multimedia device using the same A multimedia device supporting text-to-speech navigation includes a storage operable to analyze at least one multimedia file and store at least one text-to-speech voice file generated and received from a host device and the multimedia file, a user interface processor operable to provide a user interface and receiving a command ... 06/09/05 - 20050125227 - Speech synthesis method and speech synthesis device A language processing portion (31) analyzes a text from a dialogue processing section (20) and transforms the text to information on pronunciation and accent.
