Abstract :
Current day text-to-speech technologies are mature enough to be acceptable in quality for the users. There is still a large gap between a synthesised speech and a real human speech due to lack of expressions and emotions. Geneemo is a technology for automatic addition of emotions and expressions to any audio. The process of staging the text is to dramatize it. The text is enriched and transformed into a performance. Similarly, "staging the audio" refers to extending text dramatisation to audio by enriching emotionally neutral audio content into a natural human speech with real expressions. The audio can be generated by any text-to-speech technology. The aim of the project is to make human computer interactions as natural as possible with expressive speech. This also opens up a portfolio of applications replacing real human voices.
