Abstract	Diphone segmentation consists of the stylization and simulation of the perceptually meaningful dynamic portions of the acoustic continuum of speech. A primary requirement of the stylization is that any segment must be usable in a variety of morphemic environments. Diphone segment assembly is a technique for synthesizing a potentially unlimited variety of continuous utterances under computer control. A major requirement of this method of segment assembly is that there be no perceptually distracting discontinuities between contiguous segments. The presentation consists of two parts. The first is a brief description of the terminal analog synthesizer and the system for generating, storing, and assembling the control signals for diphone segments. The second part is a discussion, by example, of the analysis, synthesis, and assembly rationale for simulating continuous utterance. Parameters used for the simulation of prosodic features are discussed, and the evaluation methods are described.
