Speech morphing communication system

摘要

A communication system is described. The communication system including an automatic speech recognizer configured to receive a speech signal and to convert the speech signal into a text sequence. The communication system also including a speech analyzer configured to receive the speech signal. The speech analyzer configured to extract paralinguistic characteristics from the speech signal. In addition, the communication system includes a voice analyzer configured to receive the speech signal. The voice analyzer configured to generate one or more phonemes based on the speech signal. The communication system includes a speech output device coupled with the automatic speech recognizer, the speech analyzer and the voice analyzer. The speech output device configured to convert the text sequence into an output speech signal based on the extracted paralinguistic characteristics and said one or more phonemes.

1. A communication system comprising:
an automatic speech recognizer configured to receive a first speech signal of a first speaker and to convert said first speech signal into a text sequence; a speech analyzer configured to receive said first speech signal, said speech analyzer configured to extract paralinguistic characteristics from said first speech signal; a voice analyzer configured to receive a second speech signal of a second speaker, said voice analyzer configured to generate one or more phonemes based on said second speech signal; and a speech output device coupled with said automatic speech recognizer, said speech analyzer and said voice analyzer, said speech output device configured to convert said text sequence of said first speech signal into a converted speech signal of said second speaker based on said one or more phonemes of said second speech signal, and convert said converted speech signal into an output speech signal of said second speaker by applying said extracted paralinguistic characteristics to said converted speech signal.
