초록

Since articuratory synthesis models the human vocal organs as precise as possible, it is potentially the most desirable method to produce various words and languages. This paper proposes a new type of an articulatory synthesizer using Mermelstein vocal tract model and Kelly-Lochbaum digital filter. Previous researches have assumed that the length of the vocal tract or the number of its cross sections dose not vary while uttering. However, the continuous utterance can not be easily implemented under this assumption. The limitation is overcomed by "Buffer Rearrangement" for dynamic vocal tract in this paper.
