| Abstract | (in Japanese) | (See Japanese page) |
| (in English) | In DNN-based speech synthesis, contexts, which are input features of DNN, can be used not only for the representation of linguistic information but also for that of para- and non- linguistic information. Although spontaneous speech synthesis requires the use of various contexts to express the diversity of prosody in spontaneous speech, it is not clear what features are important. In this study, we utilize the rich tags annotated in Corpus of Spontaneous Japanese (CSJ), and use them as the extended contexts. Experimental evaluation results show that both frequently- and infrequently- observed tags are effective for synthesizing spontaneous speech. | |
