Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAnalytical Study of High Pitch Delay Resolution Technique for Tonal Speech CodingSuphattharachai Chomphan, Chutarat ChompunthProblem statement: In tonal-language speech, since tone plays important role not only on the naturalness and also the intelligibility of the speech, it must be treated appropriately in a speech coder algorithm. Approach: This study proposes an analytical study of the technique of High Pitch Delay Resolutions (HPDR) applied to the adaptive codebook of core coder of Multi-Pulse based Code … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 23 Jan 2012 · 6,913 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDesign of Tree Structure in Context Clustering Process of Hidden Markov Model-Based Thai Speech SynthesisSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In HMM-based Thai speech synthesis, the tone degradation due to the imbalance of training data of all tones. Some distortion of syllable duration is obviously noticeable when the system is trained with a small amount of data. These problems cause the decrement in naturalness and intelligibility of the synthesized speech. Approach: This study proposes an approach to improve … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 14 Jan 2012 · 6,955 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Control of Fundamental Frequency Contour for Hidden Markov Model-Based Thai Speech SynthesisSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In the conventional HMM-based speech synthesis system for Thai, there is no control of fundamental frequency control in the synthesis stage. The tone correctness of the synthesized speech is unacceptable due to the imbalance of training data of all tones. Approach: This study proposes a mathematical model to control the F0 contour of the synthesized speech. This control … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 26 Dec 2011 · 7,053 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTonal Language Speech Compression Based on a Bitrate Scalable Multi-Pulse Based Code Excited Linear Prediction CoderSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: Speech compression is an important issue in the modern digital speech communication. The functionality of bitrates scalability also plays significant role, since the capacity of communication system varies all the time. When considering tonal speech, such as Thai, tone plays important role on the naturalness and the intelligibility of the speech, it must be treated appropriately. Therefore these … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 6,810 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHigh Pitch Delay Resolution Technique for Tonal Language Speech Coding Based on Multi-Pulse Based Code Excited Linear Prediction AlgorithmSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In spontaneous speech communication, speech coding is an important process that should be taken into account, since the quality of coded speech depends on the efficiency of the speech coding algorithm. As for tonal language which tone plays important role not only on the naturalness and also the intelligibility of the speech, tone must be treated appropriately. Approach: … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 14 Jan 2011 · 6,729 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTowards the Development of Speaker-Dependent and Speaker-Independent Hidden Markov Model-Based Thai Speech SynthesisSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: Tone distortion in Thai languages can deteriorate not only the intelligibility of speech but also its naturalness. Therefore, the correctness of tone must be carefully taken into account in continuous speech synthesis. The preliminary work confronted this problem when applying HMM-based speech synthesis to Thai. Approach: This study presented a study on speaker-dependent and speaker-independent Hidden Markov Model … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,925 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFUSION OF COLOR AND MODIFIED WEBER’S LAW DESCRIPTOR BASED HUMAN SKIN DETECTIONC. Prema, D. ManimegalaiSkin detection in images or videos plays a vital role in a wide range of image processing applications like face detection, face tracking, gesture analysis, human-computer interaction etc. Due to its high processing speed and invariant against rotation, it has received significant interest in pattern recognition and computer vision. The robustness of skin detection using color information depends on real … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 19 Apr 2014 · 6,397 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsADAPTIVE EXPERT SYSTEM FOR CALCULATION OF REAL EAR INSERTION GAIN FOR DIGITAL HEARING AIDSadagopan Rajkumar, S Muttan, Balaji PillaiThe various gain calculating formulae for digital hearing aids is analyzed for different subjects to find out suitable adaptive gain formula for most successful gain recommendations. The object of the work is to design and develop an adaptive expert system, which could be effectively used to perform screening tests to identify the level of hearing impairment and recommend suitable gain … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2013 · 6,977 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThai Speech Phonology for Development of Speech Synthesis: A ReviewSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: To implementation of the Hidden Markov Model (HMM)-based Thai speech synthesis system, it is necessary to understand the phonology system for a language. Without the phonological information, the contextual factors of tree-based context clustering cannot be completed. Approach: The existing speech units in Thai are studied thoroughly so that the synthesis system can provide all of them in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 27 Dec 2011 · 6,960 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCircular Economy Modeling for Waste and Energy Management in A Developing Country: The Case of Greater Beirut AreaAbbas El Toufaili, Dario Pozzetto, Elio Padoano et al.Lebanon's energy system depends largely on imported fuels. Lebanon presented its commitment to increase by 30% its share of Renewable Energies (RE) by 2030. GBA lacks an integrated Municipal Solid Waste Management (MSWM) system. The waste composition in the Greater Beirut Area (GBA) is made of 52.2% organic waste which can be exploited for the production of green Hydrogen (H2) … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 22 Nov 2024 · 5,210 accessesView PDFCite
