Abstract: A method includes generating first synthesized speech by using text and a first emotion vector configured for the text, extracting a second emotion vector included in the first synthesized speech, determining whether correction of the second emotion information vector is needed by comparing a loss value calculated by using the first emotion information vector and the second emotion information vector with a preconfigured threshold, re-performing speech synthesis by using a third emotion information vector generated by correcting the second emotion information vector, and outputting the generated synthesized speech, thereby configuring emotion information of speech in a more effective manner. A speech synthesis apparatus may be associated with an artificial intelligence module, drone (unmanned aerial vehicle, UAV), robot, augmented reality (AR) devices, virtual reality (VR) devices, devices related to 5G services, and the like.

Abstract: Disclosed are a speech recognition verification device and a speech recognition verification method, which verify speech recognition results by executing artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms and/or machine learning algorithms in a 5G environment connected for Internet-of-Things. According to an embodiment, the speech recognition verification method includes converting a verification target text item to a verification target spoken utterance by applying a preset utterance condition, analyzing the verification target spoken utterance and outputting a recognition result text item corresponding to an analysis result, and verifying speech recognition performance through comparison between the verification target text item and the recognition result text item. According to the present disclosure, the speech recognition result may be verified objectively by using a spoken utterance generated with random text and various utterance conditions as input of speech recognition.

Abstract: A method for controlling volume in an apparatus having a speaker and a microphone includes receiving, at the microphone, external noise and speech of a user, and calculating sound pressure of the noise received by the microphone. The method further includes performing exception processing of the sound pressure of some or all of the noise using the calculated sound pressure and one of a speech utterance state, a speech receiving state, or a temporal length state, of the noise, mapping volume of the speech in response to the sound pressure of the external noise, synthesizing speech guidance into a sound file, outputting the sound file, via the speaker, according to the mapped volume.
