The Speech Synthesis of Yi Language Based on DNN

This paper is mainly about a speech synthesis system based on Deep Neural Network (DNN) model of Yi languages, a kind of minority language in china. The system is composed of relatively complete text analysis of Yi, model training and speech synthesis module. Especially in front-end, the word segmentation, pause handling, word-to-phoneme conversion and label processing are used to analysis text of Yi language. We designed the question set for decision tree of DNN model training and used vocoder: WORLD for synthesis. The system achieves a relatively good Mean Opinion Score (MOS) of 3.93 by Yi undergraduates as evaluators compared with a MOS of 4.58 of original speech. To investigate the factors affecting the quality of synthesized Yi speech, this paper also objectively evaluates the performance of different training set and DNN model. The system successfully synthesized Yi speech for the first time and synthesized speech is relatively good as the result of an only complete minority language speech synthesis system.
