A speech synthesis system can select recorded speech fragments, or acoustic units, from a large database of acoustic units to produce artificial speech. The selected acoustic units are chosen to minimize a combination of target and concatenation costs for a given sentence. Concatenation costs are expensive to compute. Processing is reduced by pre-computing and caching the concatenation costs. The number of possible sequential pairs of acoustic units makes such caching prohibitive. A method for constructing an efficient concatenation cost database is provided by synthesizing a large body of speech, identifying the acoustic unit sequential pairs generated and their respective concatenation costs, and storing those concatenation costs likely to occur.

A method for identifying potentially defective integrated circuit chips and excluding them from future testing as wafers move through a manufacturing line The method includes data-collecting steps, tagging the chips on wafers identified as potentially bad chips based on information collected as the wafer moves down the fabrication line, evaluating test cost savings by eliminating any further tests on the tagged chips preferably using a test cost database. Considering all the future tests to be preformed, the tagged chips are skipped if it is determined that the test cost saving is significant. Tagging bad chips is based on various criteria and models which are dynamically adjusted by performing the wafer final test on samples of the tagged chips and feeding-back the final test results. The dynamic adaptive adjustment method preferably includes a feedback loop or iterative process to evaluate financial tradeoffs when assessing the profit of salvaging chips against the additional test costs.
