Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus are generally described for providing an audio interface. In some examples, first voice data of a first narrator and a second voice data of a second narrator are received and the second voice data is transformed by a voice transformation function. At least a part of a first text data is converted into a first synthesized voice data based, at least in part, on the first voice data and at least a part of a second text data is converted into a second synthesized voice data based, at least in part, on the transformed second voice data by applying a voice transformation function which maximizes a feature difference between the first voice data and the transformed second voice data. The first synthesized voice data and the second synthesized voice data are provided in parallel on a temporal axis via the voice interface system.
