I was on duty to create text-to-speech (TTS) engine. After researching about the latest technology, the state-of-art of TTS had come to Deep Neural Network (DNN) scheme, instead of insisting on Hidden Markov Model (HMM). The main reason of migrating the scheme in to DNN was just the powerfullness of it.
One of the framework of doing DNN TTS is IDLAK. It was fresh from the oven. Their team had just presented their paper on Interspeech 2016. IDLAK is branch of well-known automatic-speech-recognizer (ASR) engine KALDI.
Here I am documenting the whole steps building the engine.
