<p>A synthesis method for concatenative speech synthesis is provided for efficiently concatenating waveform segments in the time-domain. A digital waveform provider produces an input sequence of digital waveform segments. A waveform concatenator concatenates the input segments by using waveform blending within a concatenation zone to synchronize, weight, and overlap-add selected portions o the input segments to produce a single digital waveform. The synchronizing includes determining a minimum weighted energy anchor in the selected portion of each input segment and aligning synchronization peaks in a local vicinity of each anchor.</p> |
