Computational Linguistics and Speech Technology for Bishnupriya Manipuri
A structured archive of research articles, book chapters, glossary entries, references, and technical resources on script processing, IPA conversion, phoneme modeling, diphone-based synthesis, and dictionary-integrated speech technology.
About this archive.
This site documents the development of a Bishnupriya Manipuri computational language system,
including orthography, IPA conversion, phoneme extraction, diphone inventory design,
audio normalization, diphone segmentation, web-based TTS, and future directions such as
neural speech technology.
