Abstract

See full text

The subject matter of the disclosure is embodied in a method that includes receiving input speech data from a speaker in a first language, and estimating, based on a universal speech model, a speaker transform representing speaker characteristics associated with the input speech data. The method also includes accessing a speaker-independent speech model for generating speech data in a second language that is different from the first language. The method further includes modifying the speaker-independent speech model using the speaker transform to obtain a speaker-specific speech model, and generating speech data in the second language using the speaker-specific speech model.
