Bangla Speech Analysis, Synthesis, and Vowel Nasality
View through CrossRef
The chapter provides an overview of the theory of speech production, analysis, and synthesis, and status of Bangla speech processing. As nasality is a distinctive feature of Bangla and all the vowels have their nasal counterpart, both Bangla vowels and nasality are also considered. The chapter reviews the state-of-the-art of nasal vowel research, cross language perception of vowel nasality, and vowel nasality transformation to be used in a speech synthesizer.

Vowel nasalization might affect the envelop of the vowel signal by reducing the magnitude of the rising and falling slope amplitude
Electrical analog study of the vocal tract has long time ago shown that nasalization can cause a drop of 5–10 dB in the overall vowel amplitude (House and Stevens, 1956). In this p...
