摘要

In our everyday routine, communication through speech is essential for interactions between individuals. Recently, TTS synthesis has attained special attention because of its promising applications in various aspects like education, accessibility, entertainment, and healthcare. The most popular TTS technique used in computer aided learning is Deep learning algorithms. The development of a Tamil TTS system using Deep Belief Network (DBN) with LASSO regularization is implemented in this paper. The LASSO regularization, improve the overall performance of Tamil TTS systems which offers high performance in feature extraction and robustness against over fitting. Hence the outcome of the proposed technique yields the best and accurate results compared to existing speech synthesis techniques. To improve the effectiveness of the system, a set of metrics, is calculated. It is shown that the proposed system outperforms existing Tamil TTS systems in terms of naturalness, intelligibility, and robustness. The simulation results achieve an improvement in accuracy of 98.6% compared to statistical based synthesis.
