  Description     : high-quality speech analysis/synthesis system on 
the basis of Vocoder

WORLD was proposed to synthesize high-quality speech as natural as the 
input speech. The purpose of WORLD is reducing the computational cost of 
TANDEM-STRAIGHT without deterioration. WORLD is superior to 
TANDEM-STRAIGHT in implementing the real-time singing synthesis, whereas 
it is inferior to TANDEM-STRAIGHT in manipulating consonant flexibly. 
Since the concept of WORLD differs from that of TANDEM-STRAIGHT, you 
should select them based on your purpose. WORLD could also be used to 
replace the non-free MBROLA synthesizer.
