hidden Markov models each delicious
hidden Markov models each delicious system this is a system which is able to

speak whatever language in order you
speak whatever language in order you give the correct input when people talk
give the correct input when people talk
give the correct input when people talk about speech synthesis system they will
about speech synthesis system they will
about speech synthesis system they will think that this is a playback from our

and will be coded database but with this
and will be coded database but with this system it is actually using our recorded
system it is actually using our recorded
system it is actually using our recorded voice characteristic in order to

construct an ill and novel words so
construct an ill and novel words so let’s take a look of how does it work
let’s take a look of how does it work
let’s take a look of how does it work this is our voice speech waveform even
this is our voice speech waveform even
this is our voice speech waveform even though it looks like a super messy and
though it looks like a super messy and
though it looks like a super messy and complicated with combination but if we
complicated with combination but if we
complicated with combination but if we take a look using a magnifier or
take a look using a magnifier or
take a look using a magnifier or microscope we can actually see the
microscope we can actually see the
microscope we can actually see the constant styling units we have a minimum
constant styling units we have a minimum
constant styling units we have a minimum time frame so this constant starting
time frame so this constant starting
time frame so this constant starting unit is called funny
so this is California so this folio is
so this is California so this folio is actually the basic basics language unit
actually the basic basics language unit
actually the basic basics language unit in every language so taking English as
in every language so taking English as
in every language so taking English as an example our basic unit conceded to
an example our basic unit conceded to
an example our basic unit conceded to this morning is actually our alphabet so
this morning is actually our alphabet so
this morning is actually our alphabet so one good thing about the alphabet is
one good thing about the alphabet is
one good thing about the alphabet is each alphabet only consists of a
each alphabet only consists of a
each alphabet only consists of a constant starting unit only so let’s
constant starting unit only so let’s
constant starting unit only so let’s take a look with this implementation we
take a look with this implementation we
take a look with this implementation we can easily blend them into the hidden
can easily blend them into the hidden
can easily blend them into the hidden Markov model that I have mentioned
Markov model that I have mentioned
Markov model that I have mentioned earlier but what is the hidden Markov
earlier but what is the hidden Markov
earlier but what is the hidden Markov model hidden Markov model is actually a
model hidden Markov model is actually a
model hidden Markov model is actually a finite state machine which is able to
finite state machine which is able to
finite state machine which is able to change to generate a situation discrete
change to generate a situation discrete
change to generate a situation discrete time of the nation throughout the time
time of the nation throughout the time
time of the nation throughout the time so when the each time unit has passed it
so when the each time unit has passed it
so when the each time unit has passed it will change the state according to the
will change the state according to the
will change the state according to the state transition probability so meaning
state transition probability so meaning
state transition probability so meaning that the probability to stay we did in
that the probability to stay we did in
that the probability to stay we did in the state or chunk into the next state
the state or chunk into the next state
the state or chunk into the next state can be actually trained by us by giving

the current input so how does this edit
the current input so how does this edit Markov model helps in speech synthesis
Markov model helps in speech synthesis
Markov model helps in speech synthesis we can actually imagine each model is
we can actually imagine each model is
we can actually imagine each model is actually a baby
actually a baby
actually a baby but why baby because we don’t teach may
but why baby because we don’t teach may
but why baby because we don’t teach may be difficult things we only teach it
be difficult things we only teach it
be difficult things we only teach it baby still awaits so that is the reason
baby still awaits so that is the reason
baby still awaits so that is the reason in each model we only train with only
in each model we only train with only
in each model we only train with only one alphabet so let’s take the
one alphabet so let’s take the
one alphabet so let’s take the perspective in an overall so if you want
perspective in an overall so if you want
perspective in an overall so if you want to synthesize the words that we want to
to synthesize the words that we want to
to synthesize the words that we want to say firstly we have to construct the
say firstly we have to construct the
say firstly we have to construct the words using the alphabet and then these
words using the alphabet and then these
words using the alphabet and then these alphabets will hence being match with
alphabets will hence being match with

the corresponding hidden Markov models
the corresponding hidden Markov models and this hidden Markov models will
and this hidden Markov models will
and this hidden Markov models will release the constants starting the study
release the constants starting the study
release the constants starting the study coefficient and when we put them all

speech together this sequential study is actually made up our speech so now we
actually made up our speech so now we
actually made up our speech so now we understand how does this work but our

next problem is does it exactly sound
next problem is does it exactly sound like what we wish for our student voice
like what we wish for our student voice
like what we wish for our student voice should have a

Kuras the Esper so let’s take a pop quiz
Kuras the Esper so let’s take a pop quiz I prepared puppies for all of you can
I prepared puppies for all of you can
I prepared puppies for all of you can anybody exactly pronounce these tourists
anybody exactly pronounce these tourists
anybody exactly pronounce these tourists correctly without any problem
correctly without any problem
correctly without any problem so the first word is called prepare but

intelligence in order to classify different pronunciation our division
different pronunciation our division
different pronunciation our division intelligence requires our classifiers in
intelligence requires our classifiers in
intelligence requires our classifiers in order to tell the difference and also
order to tell the difference and also
order to tell the difference and also make the decision so we have to find out
make the decision so we have to find out
make the decision so we have to find out a way in order to see what is the
a way in order to see what is the
a way in order to see what is the difference between the words in a
difference between the words in a
difference between the words in a simplest thing we can actually make used
simplest thing we can actually make used
simplest thing we can actually make used the words combination in order to make
the words combination in order to make
the words combination in order to make the classifier so look at the words look
the classifier so look at the words look
the classifier so look at the words look at the letter around a bit they can
