In this work, a consistency analysis between the prosody and the spectrum for Mandarin
speech is presented. Found by an inspection on the pronunciation process of human
beings, the consistency can be interpreted as a close correlated relation of a warping curve
between the spectrum and the prosody intra a syllable. Through three steps in the procedure
of the consistency analysis, the hidden Markov model (HMM) algorithm is used firstly to
decode HMM‐state sequences within a syllable at the same time as to divide them into three�…
