EN The important element of today’s speech systems is the set of recorded wavefiles annotated by a sequence of phonemes and boundary time-points. The manual segmentation of speech is a very laborious task, hence the need for automatic segmenation algorithms. However, the manual segmentation still outperforms the automatic one and at the same time the quality of resulting synthetic voice highly depends on the accuracy of the phonetic segmentation. This paper describes our methodology and implementation of automatic speech segmentation, emphasizing its new elements.
