Abstract
Embodiments are disclosed for a method for dynamic text reading. The method includes performing pre-processing for a text document. Pre-processing includes determining the text document comprises an emotional statement based on an indicator of an emotion associated with the emotional statement. Pre-processing also includes identifying a speaker of the emotional statement. Further, pre-processing includes generating a role-to-voice map that associates the speaker with a digital representation of a voice for the speaker. The method additionally includes generating, based on the pre-processing, the voice for the speaker reading aloud a text of the text document using the digital representation of the voice with a tonal modulation that conveys the emotion.
