Abstract
An approach for augmenting a teleconference based on cognitive computing. A teleconference transcript is created based on speech-to-text conversion. A portion of the teleconference transcript is replaced based on a substitute word store and on cognitive computing text substitution. A second teleconference transcript and text-to-speech conversion creates augmented real-time audio. Participant audio and augmented audios are combined to create and output augmented audio to teleconference participants. Audio augmentation includes noise reduction, volume normalization, content change and natural language translation.
