Abstract

Techniques for real-time accent conversion are described herein. An example computing device receives an indication of a first accent and a second accent. The computing device further receives, via at least one microphone, speech content having the first accent. The computing device is configured to derive, using a first machine-learning algorithm trained with audio data including the first accent, a linguistic representation of the received speech content having the first accent. The computing device is configured to, based on the derived linguistic representation of the received speech content having the first accent, synthesize, using a second machine learning-algorithm trained with (i) audio data comprising the first accent and (ii) audio data including the second accent, audio data representative of the received speech content having the second accent. The computing device is configured to convert the synthesized audio data into a synthesized version of the received speech content having the second accent.
