Abstract

See full text

A device may receive a speech signal. The device may determine acoustic feature parameters for the speech signal. The acoustic feature parameters may include phase data. The device may determine circular space representations for the phase data based on an alignment of the phase data with given axes of the circular space representations. The device may map the phase data to linguistic features based on the circular space representations. The linguistic features may be associated with linguistic content that includes phonemic content or text content. The device may provide a synthetic audio pronunciation of the linguistic content based on the mapping.
