Information about changes to the delivery of module 6 onwards.
Module 6 - speech signal analysis & modelling
Epoch detection, F0 estimation and the spectral envelope. Representing them for modelling. We also consider aperiodic energy. Then, we can analyse and reconstruct speech: this is called vocoding.
Module 8 - speech synthesis using Neural Networks
The use of neural networks is motivated by replacing the regression tree, which is used in the HMM approach, with a more powerful regression model.
This is the new version. Still under construction.
