  • Patent number: 11361751
    Abstract: In a speech synthesis method, an emotion intensity feature vector is set for a target synthesis text, an acoustic feature vector corresponding to an emotion intensity is generated based on the emotion intensity feature vector by using an acoustic model, and a speech corresponding to the emotion intensity is synthesized based on the acoustic feature vector. The emotion intensity feature vector is continuously adjustable, and emotion speeches of different intensities can be generated based on values of different emotion intensity feature vectors, so that emotion types of a synthesized speech are more diversified. This application may be applied to a human-computer interaction process in the artificial intelligence (AI) field, to perform intelligent emotion speech synthesis.

  • Patent number: 11299569
    Abstract: The present invention provides a composition for 3D printing, a process for preparing the same and an article thereof. By the solidifying method of UV irradiation, 3D printing is implemented. During said implementation, there is no need of high temperature heating, thus energy consumption is reduced, and there is no need for special solvent, thus harm to the environment is reduced. Meanwhile, the present invention uses micro-nano powder as the main material and polymer resin as adhesive, and at the same time, adds irradiation sensitizer. After electron beam irradiation, the polymer resin forms three-dimensional crosslinked network, thereby the strength, heat resistance and chemical resistance are improved after resin adhesion.
