OJAD

[salmon-enjoyer]

I was wondering if the implementation of OJAD could be possible since it has the capability to predict phrases as well as conjugations. https://www.gavo.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/ojad/eng/phrasing/index

Thank you for the suggestion.

I also think it'd be a great addition to the plugin, but to me it sees the implementation of the OJAD is not public.

On the OJAD website it says

uses Research Progress from KDDI research laboratory

the link is dead, but pointed to KDDI's “N2 TTS”
here are a few non-dead links announcing the release of N2 TTS for Android / iOS / Windows / Linux

• https://www.kddi-research.jp/newsrelease/2014/061901.html
• https://www.kddi-research.jp/newsrelease/2013/052301.html
• https://www.kddi-research.jp/newsrelease/2015/102901.html

Didn’t read all of it but its clearly a commercial product (「OSや仕様により価格が異なります。詳細はお問い合わせください。」) and the main focus is text to speech, so I’d assume what is running in the backend of the OJAD is just based on some part of N2 TTS.

So ... I guess unless someone from the 峯松研究室 or 齋藤研究室 at UTokyo drops by and shares the code running the OJAD we’re out of luck.
