Abstract:
An evaluation device applies a lowpass filter with a cutoff frequency being a first predetermined value or a second predetermined value greater than the first predetermined value with or without change of feedback formant frequencies which are formant frequencies of a picked-up speech signal, converts the picked-up speech signal, feeds back the converted speech signal to a subject, and includes an evaluation unit that calculates a compensatory response vector by using pickup formant frequencies which are formant frequencies of a speech signal acquired by picking up an utterance made by the subject while feeding back a speech signal that has been converted with change of the feedback formant frequencies to the subject, and pickup formant frequencies which are formant frequencies of a speech signal acquired by picking up an utterance made by the subject while feeding back a speech signal that has been converted without change of the feedback formant frequencies to the subject, and determines an evaluation based on a compensatory response vector for each cutoff frequency.
