Abstract
A speech processing device includes a hardware processor configured to receive input speech and extract speech frames from the input speech. The hardware processor is configured to calculate a spectrum parameter for each of the speech frames, calculate a first phase spectrum for each of the speech frames, calculate a group delay spectrum from the first phase spectrum based on a frequency component of the first phase spectrum, calculate a band group delay parameter in a predetermined frequency band from the group delay spectrum, and calculate a band group delay compensation parameter to compensate a difference between a second phase spectrum reconstructed from the band group delay parameter and the first phase spectrum. The hardware processor is configured to generate a speech waveform based on the spectrum parameter, the band group delay parameter, and the band group delay compensation parameter.
