Abstract:
Johan Liljencrants was a KTH oldtimer. His interests focused early on speech analysis and synthesis where in the 1960s he took a leading part in the development of analysis hardware, the OVE III speech synthesizer, and the introduction of computers in the Speech Transmission Laboratory. Later work shifted toward general speech signal processing, for instance in his thesis on the use of a reflection line synthesizer. His interests expanded to modelling the glottal system, parametrically as in the Liljencrants–Fant (LF) model of glottal waveshapes, as well as physically including glottal aerodyn

Introduction. In the information-search engine, semantic analysis and synthesis occupy a leading place.

Abstract:
This thesis addresses the problem of generating a range of natural sounding pitch contours for speech synthesis to convey the specific meanings of different intonation patterns. Where other models can synthesise intonation adequately for short sentences, longer sentences often sound unnatural as phrasing is only really considered at the sentence level. We build models within a framework of prosodic structure derived from the linguistic analysis of a corpus of speech. We show that the use of appropriate prosodic structure allows us to produce better contours for longer sentences and allows us t

Abstract:
With the emergence of nonlinear dynamical systems analysis over recent years it has become clear that conventional time domain and frequency domain approaches to speech synthesis may be far from optimal. Using state space reconstructions of the time domain speech signal it is, at least in theory, possible to investigate a number of invariant geometrical measures for the underlying system which give a more thorough understanding of the dynamics of the system and therefore the form that any model should take. This thesis introduces a number of nonlinear dynamical analysis tools which are then ap

Speech synthesis technology plays an important role in many aspects of man–machine interaction, particularly in telephony applications. In order to be widely accepted, the synthesised speech quality should be as human–like as possible. This thesis investigates novel techniques for the speech signal generation stage in a speech synthesiser, based on concepts from nonlinear dynamical theory. It focuses on natural–sounding synthesis for voiced speech, coupled with the ability to generate the sound at the required pitch.

Abstract:
The majority of automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems rely on hidden Markov models (HMM), in which the output distribution associated with each state is modelled by a mixture of diagonal covariance Gaussians. Dynamic information is typically included by appending time-derivatives to feature vectors. This approach, whilst successful, makes the false assumption of framewise independence of the augmented feature vectors and ignores the spatial correlations in the parametrised speech signal. This dissertation seeks to address these shortcomings by exploring acoustic modelling for ASR with an

Rubbing between rotating and stationary surfaces in turbomachinery can result in catastrophic failures if not caught quickly.

In this work, a three-disk rotor was examined analytically for nonlinear rotordynamic behavior due to an unbalance-driven rub.
