Prosodic phrasing is an important factor that affects naturalness and intelligibility in text-to-speech synthesis. Studies show that deep learning techniques improve prosodic phrasing when large text and speech corpus are available. However, for low-resource languages, such as Mongolian, prosodic phrasing remains a challenge for various reasons. First, the database suitable for system training is limited. Second, word composition knowledge that is prosody-informing has not been used in prosodic phrase modeling. To address these problems, in this article, we propose a feature augmentation method in conjunction with a self-attention neural classifier. We augment input text with morphological and phonological decompositions of words to enhance the text encoder. We study the use of self-attention classifier, that makes use of global context of a sentence, as a decoder for phrase break prediction. Both objective and subjective evaluations validate the effectiveness of the proposed phrase break prediction framework, that consistently improves voice quality in a Mongolian text-to-speech synthesis system.
