METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR GENERATING SYNTHESIZED SPEECH BASED ON HUMAN RECORDING

A method and system that incorporates human recording with a TTS system to generate synthesized speech with high quality by searching over a database of pre-recorded utterances to select an utterance best matching text content to be synthesized into speech; dividing the best-matched utterance into a plurality of segments to generate remaining segments that are the same as corresponding parts of the text content and difference segments that are different from corresponding parts of the text content; synthesizing speech for the parts of the text content corresponding to the difference segments; and splicing the synthesized speech segments with the remaining segments of the best-matched utterance.
