Abstract
A method includes generating first synthesized speech by using text and a first emotion vector configured for the text, extracting a second emotion vector included in the first synthesized speech, determining whether correction of the second emotion information vector is needed by comparing a loss value calculated by using the first emotion information vector and the second emotion information vector with a preconfigured threshold, re-performing speech synthesis by using a third emotion information vector generated by correcting the second emotion information vector, and outputting the generated synthesized speech, thereby configuring emotion information of speech in a more effective manner. A speech synthesis apparatus may be associated with an artificial intelligence module, drone (unmanned aerial vehicle, UAV), robot, augmented reality (AR) devices, virtual reality (VR) devices, devices related to 5G services, and the like.
