Research and Implementation on Text-to-Visual Speech Synthesis System (TTVS)

Combining facial information with audio speech, Text-To-Visual Speech Synthesis System(TTVS) builds multi-modal human-computer interface and has greatly improved the way the user interacts with computer. In this paper, after study the motion of visual organ of the speaker, a basic lip shape set is set up, which consists of eleven basic lip shapes. Then a lip shape set of rhyme is constructed linearly according to the basic lip shape set. In the end, based on our TTS (Text-To-Speech) system, we realized a TTVS system.
