How does English Text to Speech work?
- Concatenative TTS. This method uses pre-recorded speech segments to create a natural-sounding output by concatenating snippets together.
- HMM-based TTS. Hidden Markov Model (HMM) based TTS generates speech by modeling the vocal tract and using statistical methods to produce smooth and realistic sound.
- Neural TTS. Neural TTS employs deep learning techniques to produce high-quality, human-like speech by simulating the nuances of human voice and emotion.
- Rule-based TTS. This older method relies on pronunciation rules and phonetic algorithms to generate speech, which may sound less natural compared to modern techniques.
