Speech Synthesis and Recognition

By Wendy Holmes and John N. Holmes

This extensively reworked and updated edition of Speech Synthesis and Recognition is an easy-to-read introduction to current speech technology. Aimed at advanced undergraduates and graduates in electronic engineering, computer science, and information technology, the emphasis is on explaining underlying principles with sufficient but not unnecessary detail, to provide the reader with a thorough grounding in the problems and techniques in speech synthesis and recognition. It is ideal as an introduction before tackling more advanced texts. No advanced mathematical ability is required and no specialist prior knowledge of phonetics or of the properties of speech signals is assumed.
