    Abstract: Systems and methods for real-time correction of an accent in a speech audio signal are provided. A method includes dividing the speech audio signal into a stream of input chunks, an input chunk from the stream of input chunks including a pre-defined number of frames of the speech audio signal, extracting, by an acoustic features extraction module from the input chunk and a context associated with the input chunk, acoustic features, the context is a pre-determined number of the frames preceding the input chunk in the stream; extracting, by a linguistic features extraction module from the input chunk and the context, linguistic features, receiving a speaker embedding for a human speaker, providing the speaker embedding, the acoustic features, and the linguistic features to a synthesis module to generate a melspectrogram with a reduced accent, providing the melspectrogram to a vocoder to generate an output chunk of an output audio signal.
