Abstract

During the last few years, a framework for the development of algorithms for speech analysis and synthesis was implemented. The algorithms are connected to common databases on the different levels of a hierarchical structure. This framework which is called UASR (Unified Approach for Speech Synthesis and Recognition) and some related experiments and applications are described. Special focus is directed to the suitability of the system for processing nonverbal signals. This part is related to the analysis methods which are addressed in the COST 2102 initiative now. A potential application field in interaction research is discussed.
