Abstract
A system and method of regulating speech output by a text-to-speech (TTS) system includes: evaluating speech that has been converted from text using an initial speech quality test before presentation to a user; applying a classification test to the evaluated speech if the evaluated speech falls below a threshold based on the initial speech quality test; generating an abnormal speech classification for the evaluated speech; and applying a corrective action to the evaluated speech based on the abnormal speech classification.
