The model storage unit is configured to store a model which has trained a correspondence relationship between first feature information and an utterance style. The first feature information is extracted from a plurality of sentences in a training document. The document acquisition unit is configured to acquire a document to be read. The feature information extraction unit is configured to extract second feature information from each sentence in the document to be read. The utterance style estimation unit is configured to compare the second feature information of a plurality of sentences in the document to be read with the model, and to estimate an utterance style of the each sentence of the document to be read. | 09-20-2012 |
20120323569 | SPEECH PROCESSING APPARATUS, A SPEECH PROCESSING METHOD, AND A FILTER PRODUCED BY THE METHOD - According to one embodiment, a speech processing apparatus includes a histogram calculation unit, a cumulative frequency calculation unit, and a filter production unit. The histogram calculation unit is configured to calculate a first histogram from a first speech feature extracted from speech data, and to calculate a second histogram from a second speech feature different from the first speech feature. The cumulative frequency calculation unit is configured to calculate a first cumulative frequency by accumulating a frequency of the first histogram, and to calculate a second cumulative frequency by accumulating a frequency of the second histogram. The filter production unit is configured to produce a filter having a characteristic to get the second cumulative frequency near to the first cumulative frequency. | 12-20-2012 |
20130080155 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CREATING DICTIONARY FOR SPEECH SYNTHESIS - Apparatus for creating a dictionary for speech synthesis includes a sentence storage unit configured to store N sentences, a sentence display unit configured to selectively display a first sentence which is one of the N sentences, a recording unit configured to record each user speech, a necessity determination unit configured to make a determination of whether to create the dictionary, a dictionary creation unit configured to create the dictionary by utilizing the user speech, and a speech synthesis unit configured to convert a second sentence to a synthesized speech with the dictionary. The determination unit makes the determination under a condition that the recording unit records the user speech of M first sentences (M is less than N) and the determination is based on at least one of an instruction from the user, M and an amount of the recorded user speech. | 03-28-2013 |
