Abstract
Provided are an automatic interpretation system and method for generating a synthetic sound having characteristics similar to those of an original speaker's voice. The automatic interpretation system for generating a synthetic sound having characteristics similar to those of an original speaker's voice includes a speech recognition module configured to generate text data by performing speech recognition for an original speech signal of an original speaker and extract at least one piece of characteristic information among pitch information, vocal intensity information, speech speed information, and vocal tract characteristic information of the original speech, an automatic translation module configured to generate a synthesis-target translation by translating the text data, and a speech synthesis module configured to generate a synthetic sound of the synthesis-target translation.
