Description : high-quality speech analysis/synthesis system on
the basis of Vocoder
WORLD was proposed to synthesize high-quality speech as natural as the
input speech. The purpose of WORLD is reducing the computational cost of
TANDEM-STRAIGHT without deterioration. WORLD is superior to
TANDEM-STRAIGHT in implementing the real-time singing synthesis, whereas
it is inferior to TANDEM-STRAIGHT in manipulating consonant flexibly.
Since the concept of WORLD differs from that of TANDEM-STRAIGHT, you
should select them based on your purpose. WORLD could also be used to
replace the non-free MBROLA synthesizer.
