AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0007] In particular, in the case of speech synthesis of long texts, there is a problem that as the speech synthesis time increases, the feedback speech output by the artificial intelligence (AI) agent becomes slower, and the user may feel that it is different from the AI ​​agent. conversation becomes unnatural
[0008] In the case of synthesizing speech in parallel, by segmenting the feedback text sentence to advance the feedback, there is a problem that each voice of the segmented text sentence has a separate prosody, and the prosody is not connected between the voices
As a result, unnatural feedback speech is often output overall

Abstract

An electronic apparatus, based on a text sentence being input, obtains prosody information of the text sentence, segments the text sentence into a plurality of sentence elements, obtains a speech in which prosody information is reflected to each of the plurality of sentence elements in parallel by inputting the plurality of sentence elements and the prosody information of the text sentence to a text to speech (TTS) module, and merges the speech for the plurality of sentence elements that are obtained in parallel to output speech for the text sentence.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to an electronic device and a control method thereof. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to an electronic device capable of realizing a more natural-sounding dialogue system and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) systems have been used in various fields. Unlike existing rule-based intelligent systems, AI systems are systems that machine learn, judge, and iteratively improve analysis and decision-making. As the use of AI systems increases, for example, accuracy, recognition rates, and understanding or anticipation of user tastes may correspondingly increase. Therefore, existing rule-based intelligent systems are gradually being replaced by deep learning-based AI systems. [0003] AI technology consists of machine learning (eg, deep learning) and basic techniques that utilize machine learning. [0004] Machine learning is an algorithmic te...
