  • Publication number: 20240185874
    Abstract: An electronic device and method for machine learning (ML) based emotion and voice conversion in audio using virtual domain mixing and fake pair-masking is disclosed. The electronic device receives a source audio associated with a first user, a reference-speaker audio associated with a second user, and a reference-emotion audio associated with a third user. The electronic device applies a set of ML models to generate a converted audio. The generated converted audio is associated with content of the source audio, an identity of the second user and an emotion of the third user. The electronic device applies each of a source speaker classifier and a source emotion classifier on the converted audio, and re-trains an adversarial model. Based on the re-training, the adversarial model may allow conversion of an input audio to an output audio associated with the identity of the second user and the emotion of the third user.

  • Publication number: 20240184261
    Abstract: The invention presents an activity amount calculation apparatus, which includes a processor; a storage unit; and an interface configured to acquire information from a piece of equipment used for an operation of a process in a manufacturing line. The storage unit manages a standard operation time related to an operation time in the process. The processor acquires, using the interface from a piece of equipment that is an observation target in the manufacturing line, an actual value of a work time of the piece of equipment, and calculates, using the acquired actual value and the standard operation time of a process performed by a piece of equipment that is not the observation target in the manufacturing line, an activity amount of each piece of equipment in the manufacturing line.
