Le présent et l'avenir de Mbrola/Euler d'après un chercheur de Mons ... -------- Original Message -------- Subject: RE: Emacspeak with Mbrola Date: Tue, 13 Mar 2001 09:00:42 +0100 From: "Baris Bozkurt" <bozkurt@tcts.fpms.ac.be>To: "Phil's Free" <philsfree@free.fr> Hi Phil, Thank you for your interest in our projects. We are trying to extend both Mbrola and Euler. Currently we are working on non-uniform-units synthesis which will make Mbrola work for corpus based synthesis. Using diphones limits the naturality of speech so we want to use Mbrola with bigger databases. Additionally, we are trying to increase the quality in diphone based synthesis too. Inbetween, I process new databases for the project( new Greek and Italian databases will come soon) ,answer questions, compile for other domains, etc.. We are also trying to add tools for new languages to Euler. Our friend responsible for Euler is spending most of his time on a few 'aids for handicapped' projects, so for Euler he can only hunt bugs at this time. We do not announce the current projects until we finish them. Unfortunately, usually the babies are first born in windows environment then compiled for others. If you stay in interest mail lists(mbrola and euler) you can hear about the steps taken. Best regards, Baris :) -----Original Message----- From: philfree@free.fr [mailto:philfree@free.fr]On Behalf Of Phil's FreeSent: Monday, March 12, 2001 10:11 PM To: Baris Bozkurt Cc: Mbrola ML Subject: Re: Emacspeak with Mbrola Hi, When you write about "building new technologies on speech synthesis" do you mean replacing or extending Mbrola ? Mbrola seems fine to me ... but huge difficulties remain in the other stages of TTS as Euler well demonstrate them. Could we be informed more often about your works - especially for Linux ? For instance, is there any Euler 2.1 or 3.0 in progress ? Best regards.
