    摘要: A speech processing apparatus which can playback a sentence using recorded-speech-playback or text-to-speech is provided. It is determined whether each of a plurality of words or phrases constituting a sentence is a word or phrase to be played back by recorded-speech-playback or a word or phrase to be played back by text-to-speech. When each of the plurality of words or phrases is to be played back in a first sequence using the determined synthesis method, it is selected whether to playback each of the plurality of words or phrases in the first sequence or a sequence different from the first sequence, based on the number of times of reversing playback using recorded-speech-playback and playback using text-to-speech. Each of the plurality of words or phrases is played back in the selected sequence using the selected synthesis method.

    摘要: A speech recognition grammar creating apparatus, which is capable of eliminating complex labor associated with preparing all rules by taking into account changes of the order of component elements of a speech-recognizing object and possible combinations of component elements including at least one component element that can be omitted. In the speech recognition grammar creating apparatus, an image edit section groups together at least one component element that cannot be omitted and at least one component element that can be omitted, as the speech-recognizing object, into a component element group as an omission-allowed group. An augmented BNF converting section creates the speech recognition grammar by expanding the component element group obtained by the grouping.

    摘要: A notation character string division unit acquires a word to be processed from a word dictionary which includes a plurality of words each having notation information and pronunciation information, and divides its notation into a plurality of partial character strings. A partial character string coupling unit generates new partial character strings by coupling neighboring ones of the plurality of divided partial characters. A pronunciation rule generation unit determines pronunciations corresponding to the obtained partial character strings, and registers sets of partial character strings and pronunciations as pronunciation rules in a pronunciation rule holding unit. A pronunciation rule deletion unit deletes registered pronunciation rules on the basis of the frequencies of occurrence of pronunciation rules registered in the pronunciation rule holding unit.
