Abstract

In a speech synthesis method, an emotion intensity feature vector is set for a target synthesis text, an acoustic feature vector corresponding to an emotion intensity is generated based on the emotion intensity feature vector by using an acoustic model, and a speech corresponding to the emotion intensity is synthesized based on the acoustic feature vector. The emotion intensity feature vector is continuously adjustable, and emotion speeches of different intensities can be generated based on values of different emotion intensity feature vectors, so that emotion types of a synthesized speech are more diversified. This application may be applied to a human-computer interaction process in the artificial intelligence (AI) field, to perform intelligent emotion speech synthesis.
