  • Abstract
    SRS (Speech Research System), the interactive speech synthesis system at Cornell University, now allows users to work with three kinds of text-tophoneme rules: text-modification rules, conversion rules, and feature-modification rules. These rules apply in succession to convert a text utterance into a string of phonemes. The SRS strategy is being used to develop a practical set of text-tophoneme rules for English. Performance tests show very promising results.
