The invention relates to speech speed conversion, and provides a speech speed converting device and a speech speed converting method for changing a speed of voice without degrading the voice quality, without changing characteristics, regarding a signal containing voice. The speech speed converting device includes: a voice classifying unit that is input with voice waveform data and a voice code based on a linear prediction, and that classifies the input signal based on the characteristic of the input signal; and a speed adjusting unit that selects either one of or both a speed conversion processing using the voice waveform and a speed conversion processing using the voice code, based on the classification, and that changes a speech speed of the input signal using the selected speed converting method. |
