  • Publication number: 20240363126
    Abstract: Provided is an audio data generation device that achieves high-quality audio generation processing (for example, speech synthesis processing) at high speed without using a GPU that is capable of high-speed processing. The audio data generation device has a configuration in which a multi-stream generation unit obtains a plurality of stream data; furthermore, introducing a learnable convolution processing unit enables adversarial learning with the high-accurate data discrimination device. The audio data generation device obtained through the adversarial learning can perform high-speed and highly accurate audio data generation processing. Furthermore, the audio data generation device has a simple configuration, thus achieving high-quality audio data generation processing (for example, speech synthesis processing) at high speed without using a GPU that is capable of high-speed processing.

  • Patent number: 10614168
    Abstract: A translation apparatus that can perform translation based on a correct syntax, a syntax evaluation apparatus employed in the translation apparatus, a syntax evaluation method, and a syntax evaluation program are provided. A syntax evaluation unit 13 includes a grammatical element guessing part 131 that guesses a grammatical element that should be connected before and after or after a word string indicated by first fragment data, and a grammatical element complementing part 132 that complements, based on the guessing result of the grammatical element guessing part 131, the first fragment data as necessary to generate second fragment data. When the grammatical element guessing part 131 guesses a grammatical element, the grammatical element complementing part 132 complements, at a location to which the grammatical element of the word string indicated by the first fragment data should be connected, a tag indicating the grammatical element in order to generate the second fragment data.

  • Publication number: 20190066657
    Abstract: Provided is an audio data processing system that performs processing at high speed and obtains high-quality audio data in audio data processing using a raw audio generative model. An audio data learning apparatus of the audio data learning processing system divides full band waveform data into subband signals and performs model-learning (optimization) using the divided subband signal by a subband learning model unit. In an audio data inference apparatus, a subband learned model unit receiving at least one of an auxiliary input and subband signals performs inference processing in parallel, and a subband synthesis unit synthesizes subband signals after processing. This allows the audio data processing system to perform audio data processing using the raw audio generative at high speed.
