SSML for Indian Languages Text to Speech Synthesis Presented by: Vibhu Agarwal President and co- founder Prologix Software Solutions Pvt Ltd. ( www.prologixsoft.com )
Common difficulties encountered while rendering Indian language texts.  Use of mixed language  Encoding schemes vary across fonts  Non standard encoding of text  Use of Roman transliterated text  Multiple transliteration schemes
Handling encoding issues in SSML  Provide script and encoding explicitly.  < transliterate format URL> …. < / transliterate>  Example < transliteration format= “myformat" url= http:/ / www.prologixsoft.com/ transformat/ mytrans.map> mai hindee me likhe shabdo ko paDh_saktaa hun < / transliteration>  Transliteration rules can be read by the processor at the indicated URL
ng gh kh oo sh ee aa h g k u s a i . . . Example of a transliteration rule
Handling encoding issues in SSML  Example < transliteration format= “null" url= http:/ / www.prologixsoft.com/ encode/ encod.map> < / transliteration>  In case of non- standard encoding of characters, rules can be read by the processor at the indicated URL
Handling mixed language use  Should be suitably indicated to TTS where use of mixed language is expected to affect rendition  Example: breaks < break domain= "interlanguage"> इस software की performance बेकार है < break/ > The SSML implementation may choose to interpret the above as [pause] software [pause] [pause] performance [pause]
