  • Automatic emphasis of spoken words
    Patent number: 9852743
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media directed towards automatic emphasis of spoken words. In one embodiment, a process may begin by identifying, within an audio recording, a word that is to be emphasized. Once identified, contextual and lexical information relating to the emphasized word can be extracted from the audio recording. This contextual and lexical information can be utilized in conjunction with a predictive model to determine a set of emphasis parameters for the identified word. These emphasis parameters can then be applied to the identified word to cause the word to be emphasized. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
