| Research Abstract |
Speaking rate estimation techniques for a reproduction system using flexible time-axis and signal processing techniques for a speaking rate conversion are studied. In the study period, the software research environment is expanded. In this expanded environment. signal processing is decomposed and described for every processing element, and a new signal processing method can be made by connecting elements. About the system with FPGA, the proposed method of a reproduction system was implemented on the evaluation board of Xilinx. Moreover, in this research, construction of a special speech database is also performed so that researchers all over the country can use free. At the time of the end of this academic study period, the database has 2216 sentences, and has already opened to the public.
