Technology Overview

Recordings of a female Mexican-Spanish human voice processed and reformatted to be usable as an Acoustic Inventory Corpus (AIC) by the OGIresLPC sub-system (OHSU #0631) in the Festival open-source text-to-speech system.

The AIC consists of time-stamped digital recordings of raw speech or processed speech together with index files that map phoneme sequences via the time stamps to corresponding time stamps in the digital recordings. The AIC was designed to have optimal coverage of phoneme sequences in which substantial coarticulation can be expected.
