Abstract:
An automatic interpretation method performed by a correspondent terminal communicating with an utterer terminal includes receiving, by a communication unit, voice feature information about an utterer and an automatic translation result, obtained by automatically translating a voice uttered in a source language by the utterer in a target language, from the utterer terminal and performing, by a sound synthesizer, voice synthesis on the basis of the automatic translation result and the voice feature information to output a personalized synthesis voice as an automatic interpretation result. The voice feature information about the utterer includes a hidden variable including a first additional voice result and a voice feature parameter and a second additional voice feature, which are extracted from a voice of the utterer.
