Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSpeech Compression for Noise-Corrupted Thai DialectsSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: Dialects of Thai are quite different in the speaking styles. Environmental noises play an important role in corrupting the communication speech quality. Two factors affect the coded speech in the present speech communication. It is necessary to investigate how the two factors influence on the speech compression. Approach: In this study, the Multi-Pulse based Code Excited Linear Predictive … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 9 Jan 2012 · 7,241 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThai 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 · 6,963 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA 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 · 7,057 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleModeling of Fundamental Frequency Contour of Thai Expressive Speech using Fujisaki's Model and Structural ModelSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In spontaneous speech communication, prosody is an important factor that must be taken into account, since the prosody effects on not only the naturalness but also the intelligibility of speech. Focusing on synthesis of Thai expressive speech, a number of systems has been developed for years. However, the expressive speech with various speaking styles has not been accomplished. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 9 Aug 2011 · 6,980 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSpeech Compression for Noise-Corrupted Thai Expressive SpeechSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In speech communication, speech coding aims at preserving the speech quality with lower coding bitrate. When considering the communication environment, various types of noises deteriorates the speech quality. The expressive speech with different speaking styles may cause different speech quality with the same coding method. Approach: This research proposed a study of speech compression for noise-corrupted Thai expressive … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 6 Aug 2011 · 6,231 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSpeech Enhancement Algorithm Using Sub band Two Step Decision Directed Approach with Adaptive Weighting factor and Noise Masking ThresholdDeepa Dhanaskodi, Shanmugam ArumugamProblem statement: Speech Enhancement plays an important role in any of the speech processing systems like speech recognition, mobile communication, hearing aid. Approach: In this work, human perceptual auditory masking effect is incorporated into the single channel speech enhancement algorithm. The algorithm is based on a criterion by which the audible noise may be masked rather than being attenuated and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2011 · 7,130 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAnalysis of Fundamental Frequency Contour of Coded Speech Based on Multi-Pulse Based Code Excited Linear Prediction AlgorithmSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In low-bit-rate speech communication, speech coding deteriorates the characteristics of the coded speech significantly. An important feature of the speech is the fundamental frequency contour which determines the pitch information of the speech. It has been known that pitch information is one of the core parameter of the multi-pulse based code excited linear prediction (MPCELP) speech coder. Therefore … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2011 · 6,463 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA New Robust Hybrid Approach to Enhance Speech in Mobile Communication SystemsManimegalai Govindan Sumithra, Keppana Gounder Thanuskodi, Bharathi DeepaProblem statement: The received voice signal in mobile communication is often disturbed by background noise and hence there is a need for good noise reduction methods for enhancing Speech. It is well known that denoising is a compromise between the removal of the largest possible amount of noise and the preservation of signal integrity. To address this issue, a new … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Apr 2011 · 7,305 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Noises on the Analysis of Fundamental Frequency Contours for Thai SpeechSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In speech communication, noises from surrounding environments affect the communication quality with various aspects. The received speech quality should be analyzed to see how the important noises reduce the speech quality so that we can eliminate them in an appropriate way. Approach: This study presents a study on the analysis of the noise effects on Thai speech. Four … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 6,833 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAnalysis of Decision Trees in Context Clustering of Hidden Markov Model Based Thai Speech SynthesisSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In Thai speech synthesis using Hidden Markov model (HMM) based synthesis system, the tonal speech quality is degraded due to tone distortion. This major problem must be treated appropriately to preserve the tone characteristics of each syllable unit. Since tone brings about the intelligibility of the synthesized speech. It is needed to establish the tone questions and other … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 7 Mar 2011 · 6,847 accessesView PDFCite
