Abstract:
This application relates to a method of synthesizing a speech of which a speed and a pitch are changed. In one aspect, the method includes a spectrogram may be generated by performing a short-time Fourier transformation on a first speech signal based on a first hop length and a first window length, and speech signals of sections having a second window length at the interval of a second hop length from the spectrogram. A ratio between the first hop length and the second hop length may be set to be equal to the value of a playback rate and a ratio between the first window length and the second window length may be set to be equal to the value of a pitch change rate, thereby generating a second speech signal of which the speed and the pitch are changed.
