A rope-jumping algorithm is employed in a Hidden Markov Model based text to speech system to determine start and end models and to modify the start and end models by setting small co-variances. Disordered acoustic parameters due to violation of parameter constraints are avoided through the modification and result in stable line frequency spectrum for the generated speech.
