Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to a pronunciation synthesis and characterization apparatus for a multi-lingual vocabulary for persons with speech disabilities,

In the following description, vocabularies having the same meaning in a plurality of languages are grouped together, and a database is constructed by noting the spelling of these vocabulary as well as pronounciation pronunciation information and its pronunciation in Korean, and the information contained therein is used in a language It is about Korean-based multi-lingual vocabulary input / output technology that enables the vocabulary to be written in Korean and provide a method to search through the text information.

In order to communicate between a person and a person, a mutually familiar vocabulary must be used. These vocabularies are expressed in speech or letters. There are over 6,000 languages on earth, and most people can speak only one of them, so the communication situation of humans is very closed. Although the communication technology developed by the introduction of the letter and the development of the ICT technology, it is impossible to access it if the character is unknown, and there are only about 400 languages written in the language, and the characters are different between these languages, There are many people who are restricted from communication because they can not use letters due to physical disabilities.

On the other hand, the voices of all languages are human voices. Therefore, if there is a character that expresses a voice, all languages in the world can be represented by this character. Of course, this does not mean communication, but if we add ICT technology here, human communication problems can be solved at any rate.

Hangeul has a unique sound value for each letter, and it can express any pronunciation of any language with a reasonable accuracy through the combined syllable principle of Hunminjeongeum.

Hereinafter, embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a block diagram for explaining a configuration of a pronunciation synthesizing and characterizing apparatus of a multilingual vocabulary according to an embodiment.

A syllable can be a minimal unit of speech according to human vocabulary consisting of initial, neutral and intonation, initial, neutral, longitudinal and intonation. In the embodiments, the beginning is a combination of 10 basic consonants and a basic consonant in Hangul, 10 a basic vowel in Hangul is a combination of basic vowels, and a vowel is a combination of 10 basic consonants in Hangul and a basic consonant It can be expressed as consonant, and the syllable has its own intonation, so it can be expressed in speech and Hangul notation.

The multilingual vocabulary synthesizing and characterizing apparatus 100 is intended to provide a convenient vocabulary generator for a person who can not speak, a person who can not speak, and a person who can not read a character. For example, A synthesizer 110, a multilingual vocabulary DB 120, a lexical information synthesis unit 130, an output control unit 140, and an output unit 150.

The multilingual vocabulary synthesizing and characterizing apparatus 100 provides a consonant interface, a vowel interface, and an intonation interface for each desired pronunciation of a desired speech synthesizer and a Korean word, And to reproduce the appropriate accent.

The universal syllable synthesizer 110 may provide a consonant interface, a vowel interface, and an intonation interface. For example, the universal syllable synthesizer 110 may be provided with a user interface for each interface. The universal syllable synthesizer 110 may generate a note corresponding to the selected interface by selecting at least one of the consonant interface, the vowel interface, and the intonation interface.

The common language syllable synthesizer 110 consists of a phonetic consonant button 110, a vowel button 120, an intonation button 130 and a vocabulary completion button 140, To synthesize the pronunciation of the syllable.

In other words, the multi-lingual phonetic synthesis and characterization apparatus transmits the synthesized phonetic syllables through the respective interfaces to the lexical information synthesis unit 120 and synthesizes them by the pronunciation of the vocabulary, And the Hangul notation 123 can be registered by the intonation interface. The Hangul notation 123 of the formed vocabulary can be transmitted to the output control unit 140 to search for the matching vocabulary 141 in the multilingual DB 130. [ The output control unit 140 transmits the selected language to the output unit 150 when the language is designated as the output language for the searched vocabulary is selected 142 to output the flesh pronunciation 510 and spelling method 520 information in the designated language can do.

The multi-language syllable synthesizer 110 may synthesize the initials, neutrals, intonations, and intonations input from the user and generate synthesized syllables. At this time, the phonetic synthesis and characterization apparatus 100 of the multilingual vocabulary synthesizes the pronunciation of the syllable synthesized by the universal syllable synthesizer 110 to the lexical information synthesis unit 300 and synthesized by the pronunciation of the vocabulary, Hangul notation 330 for the consonant interface, collection interface, and intonation interfaces used may be registered.

The lexical information synthesis unit 120 acquires the synthesized syllable to form a vocabulary, and can provide a pronunciation and a Hangul notation according to the vocabulary (121, 122, 123).

The multilingual vocabulary DB 130 classifies vocabularies having the same meaning for vocabularies according to a plurality of languages, and can organize and store the vocabularies in the spelling of the selected language, the pronunciation of the selected language, and the Korean pronunciation of the pronunciations. The multi-language vocabulary DB 130 classifies vocabularies having the same meaning from a plurality of languages and stores the vocabularies, and the spelling corresponding to the vocabulary of the plurality of languages and the Korean pronunciation And may also store the pronunciation of the vocabulary corresponding to another language including the same meaning as the vocabulary input from the user and the spelling of the language.

At this time, the multilingual vocabulary DB 130 accesses the vocabulary of the selected language among the vocabulary of the upbringing pronunciation, thereby outputting the pronunciation of the vocabulary of the same meaning in other languages as well as the spelling of the language can do.

The output control unit 140 searches the vocabulary of the vocabulary formed on the basis of the syllable input from the user and the vocabulary corresponding to the vocabulary of the vocabulary stored in the multilingual vocabulary DB 130 and selects an output language for the searched vocabulary (141, 142).

The output unit 150 may output the spelling and the pronunciations according to the selected output language (151, 152).

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the types of basic characters and intonation in the pronunciation synthesis and characterization apparatus of a multilingual vocabulary according to an embodiment.

Since the consonants and vowels of Hunminjeongum are made on the basis of the characteristic activities of the human oral cavity, they can express any syllable by choosing the representative basic characters shown in Hunminjeongeum and using them (in Hunminjeongeum, this is called collective sickness.

For example, the current Korean alphabet is composed of 14 consonants (a, b, c, d, k, f, g, o, ㅕ, ㅗ, ㅛ, ㅜ, ㅠ, ㅡ, ㅣ), the total number of 24 consonants can be obtained by sb, a, c, . Therefore, the basic consonants are compressed to 10 except for,,,, ㅌ, and ㅍ, and ㅑ, ㅕ, ㅛ, and 중 among 10 vowels omit them with phonetic pronunciation when a, ㅓ, ㅗ, Instead, they are compressed into 10 basic vowels, including short vowels ㅐ, ㅔ, ㅚ and Hunminjeongeum (ㆍ) which can not be synthesized.

ㅑ = ㅑ + a; ㅕ = ㅣ + ㅓ; ㅛ = ㅣ + ㅗ; ㅠ = ㅣ + ㅜ

Syllables can have unique accents depending on the language, so proper accent should be chosen to complete the syllable marking. Thus, the multilingual vocabulary synthesizing and characterizing device is accented by 4 accents of Chinese and accents of English, 3 vocabulary of Vietnamese

) And 4
Figure pat00002
) Can be provided to choose from ten commonly used accents.

FIG. 2 is a table showing 10 basic consonants, 10 basic vowels, and intonation.

It is a combination of the above, a, c, and b,

Figure pat00007

Accordingly, the basic consonant may have the following four types.

Figure pat00008

Multilingual Vocabulary Pronunciation Synthesis and characterization devices can be set by judging that Chinese tongues sh and zh ch are made to meet with,,,, and 혓 respectively. In addition, the multilingual vocabulary pronunciation synthesis and characterization apparatus may be configured such that a combination of the words "f" and "f" together with "ㅇ" and "ㅂ" form a v-pronunciation.

Figure pat00009

In order to mechanically implement the above pronunciation changes, an interface for ten basic consonants can be provided. FIG. 3 is a diagram for providing ten basic consonants of a multilingual vocabulary through phonetic consonant interfaces in a pronunciation synthesizing and characterizing apparatus, in which voices, fundamental sounds, audible sounds, and whistles are uttered. FIG. 3 illustrates a configuration of a sounding consonant interface, for example, a consonant interface and a consonant interface.

As shown in FIG. 3, the consonant interface of each consonant interface for the consonant has a consonant with the consonants A, B, C, D, K, F, G, (Loud sounds), fundamental sounds, loud sounds (loud sounds), and tremble (strong sounds). At this time, depending on the position of the consonant interface, it may be provided to utter the lyme-base-tone-percussion-percussive sound. At least one of the following can be uttered based on the position at which the consonant interface is selected: yell, base, audible, and shaky. For example, a multilingual vocabulary pronunciation synthesizing and characterizing device can select a desired consonant from a user through a consonant interface, and the pronunciation corresponding to the selected consonant can be selected and spoken.

However, in the consonant interface, both the lunar and the hypnotism are both ㅇㅇ, and the ㅎ button has both loud and loud sounds, and one of them becomes meaningless. In addition, there may be some pronunciations of 10 basic consonants that are not actually used in any language, but it is necessary to secure the function of pronunciation which is not currently used for the expression of the national pronunciation. It is possible to synthesize phonemic pronunciation with the four-phonetic pronunciation of this basic consonant.

The pronunciation synthesizing and characterizing apparatus of the multilingual vocabulary can combine vowels in the same manner as in Fig. 4 as the desired consonants are selected from the user through the consonant interface and vocalized. FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a configuration of a Hangul vowel through a vowel interface in a pronunciation synthesizing and characterizing apparatus of a multilingual vocabulary according to an exemplary embodiment and providing pronunciation to be uttered.

The collection of Hunminjeongeum consists of a combination of cloth (), cloth () and cloth (). If you pronounce the cloth with the mouth shape as l (ㅣ) and you pronounce the cloth (ㆍ) with the mouth shape as) (.), It becomes.. In this way, there are 10 basic vowels, ㅣ, a, ㅓ, ㅡ, ㅗ, ㅜ, ㅐ, ㅔ, ㅚ,.. As in consonants, basic vowels can be merged to implement any vowel. For example, the wa in English is ㅗ + a,

Figure pat00010
Can be expressed as ㅜ + ㅣ.

Multilingual Vocabulary Pronunciation Synthesis and Characterization System is composed of vocabulary composed of a point (cloth), a vertical line (in), and a horizontal line (ground) on the left and right sides of the cloth () -) can be arranged to form a vowel interface as shown in FIG.

The multilingual vocabulary pronunciation synthesis and characterization device can implement a vowel shape input from a user by providing a vowel interface. For example, a vowel and a vowel are on the right side of a lie, so the left lie should be used, and ㅓ and ㅕ should be on the right. Similarly, ㅗ and ㅛ should write the lower part (ㅡ), ㅜ and ㅠ (upper part). To enter ㅘ, you have to press the bottom (ㅡ), left (ㅣ), and cloth (ㆍ). The multilingual vocabulary pronunciation synthesizing and characterizing apparatus can combine pronunciation of consonants and vowels in the same manner as in FIGS. 3 and 4, so that pronunciation combined with initial and neutral can be uttered.

The following is an example of how to implement a vowel.

Figure pat00011

The pronunciation synthesis and characterization device of the multilingual vocabulary can be selected as a consonant after selecting the consonant after inputting the initial, neutral, and intonation, and the syllable pronunciation can be completed and vocalized. If the syllable has no continuity, Can proceed. At this time, a desired syllable is input and implemented by the user, so that when a vocabulary input is finished, a vocabulary input can be terminated by selecting a vocabulary completion interface.

5 is a diagram for explaining a multi-language vocabulary synthesis and characterization apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

FIG. 5 shows the shape of a syllable synthesizer for a national language completed by arranging ten intonation interfaces together with a consonant interface and a vowel interface as described above. However, FIG. 5 exemplifies the universal language pitch synthesizer, and is not limited thereto. Similarly, the shapes and arrangement of the consonant interface, the vowel interface, and the intonation interface may be different.

The multi-lingual phonetic synthesis and characterization apparatus can provide a phonetic synthesizer for pronunciation and output through a terminal. For example, the terminal may be a fixed terminal implemented as a computer device or a mobile terminal. Examples of the terminal include a smart phone, a mobile phone, a navigation system, a computer, a notebook, a terminal for digital broadcasting, a PDA (Personal Digital Assistants), a PMP (Portable Multimedia Player), a tablet PC and the like.

Through this, the user can generate a vocabulary based on the desired consonant interface, vowel interface, and intonation interface through the terminal. Multilingual Vocabulary Pronunciation The synthesizing and characterizing apparatus can output spelling and pronunciation pronunciations according to a language according to a vocabulary input from a user.

Language speech can be expressed in syllables, and syllables usually consist of [prepositional + neutral + prosperous], but often they are omitted. The sounds of these syllables can be made by manipulating the voiced consonant interface and vowel interface described above from the user. For example, to manipulate the pronunciation of the word 'father', first select 'o' in the consonant interface and 'a' in the vowel interface, and 'a' in the consonant interface and ''ㅓ' and 'Ji' are clicked on the interface corresponding to 'ゃ' and 'ㅣ'. Three syllables such as 'ah', 'bur', and 'ji' all have no continuity, so that three syllables can be formed naturally. When the vocabulary is completed, the vocabulary completion interface can be selected to terminate the vocabulary input. Also, 'father'

Figure pat00012
And the second syllable of < RTI ID = 0.0 >
Figure pat00013
First, the consonant interface is created by pressing the consonant interface and the consonant interface, and the long vowel is generated by pressing 'a' twice on the vowel interface. And to express the accent,
Figure pat00014
The accent may be uttered.

Even if you do not select the accent, you can search vocabulary by establishing pronunciation of Korean vocabulary and Hangul notation.

Figure pat00015
In the case of., Press the consonant interface and the consonant interface, enter 'ㅓ' and press'''. here
Figure pat00016
And
Figure pat00017
It is necessary to press both interfaces simultaneously to indicate that it is a consonant.

As shown in FIG. 2, basic consonants and basic vowels, and intonation types can be assigned a numerical value from 0 to 9. Using these numerical symbols, the pronunciation can be expressed numerically, so even if the pronunciation is not used, the numerical value can be displayed. For example, a = 100, a = 100, a = 111, a = 1, a = 11, a = a, . In addition, ㅌ and 는 are similar in pronunciations, and it is difficult to distinguish them from each other. It is not known that these two pronunciations are similar pronunciation. However, since they are marked 39 and 69 respectively and share the number 9, it can be seen that these tones have a common point. This means that numbers rather than letters can be used more intuitively to display the shape of the sound and can be used for search or program production.

For example, 'father' is syllable and 'a / ver / zi' is used, and the above numerical symbol can be expressed as [0.2.] [6.3.] [8.1.]. Here, the vowels are distinguished by points before and after. In addition, the English 'father'

Figure pat00018
Can be separated into two syllables of [69.22 (5).] [03.2.4].

Such a speech can be obtained by selecting the corresponding consonant for each syllable in the case of the initial, neutral, intonation, and utterance in the above-mentioned syllable synthesizer. If you list the consonants and vowels selected in this process, it becomes the Hangul notation of this vocabulary.

Since the pronunciation synthesized above is a mechanical sound, it may be different from the pronunciation of the actual native speaker. Accordingly, it is possible to inform the correct pronunciation by listening to the pronunciations corresponding to the mechanical sounds, and at the same time, to confirm that the desired pronunciation is synthesized properly. To do this, you need to include all the recorded vocabulary information in all the vocabularies stored in the 'Multilingual Vocabulary DB'. At this time, the training record information should be recorded together with the pronunciation in Hangul, and the synthesized machine sounds are also automatically displayed in Korean, so that the two will be compared to find a matching vocabulary. If a matching vocabulary can not be found, several similar words may be presented in order to allow the user to select.

Multilingual vocabulary DB collects vocabularies of all target languages that have the same meaning for a specific vocabulary, and expresses the spoken information recorded by the spelling of the language and native speakers recorded for each, Information '. The vocabularies of the target language included in the multilingual vocabulary DB can be searched with the pronunciation information in Korean because the pronunciation of the vocabulary is written in Korean.

In the above description, the word " vocabulary " is used, but it is not necessarily targeted to only one vocabulary. For example, frequently used short texts such as Thank you and Thank you very much can be treated as a single vocabulary, and can be broadly used by being stored in a multilingual vocabulary DB.

A multilingual vocabulary pronunciation synthesizing and characterizing apparatus according to an embodiment synthesizes pronunciation of a vocabulary to be operated by manipulating a vocabulary of a voice and displays it in Korean and finds a standard pronunciation and a standard spelling method of a desired language, Non-Speakers and Non-Speakers Even non-literate speakers can provide the words they want to express in standard spelling and standard spelling of the desired language, and provide them to overcome language difficulties.

The multi-lingual phonetic pronunciation synthesis and characterization apparatus according to an embodiment executes translation into a desired language by selecting one or more languages. Through this, it is possible to solve the problem of language caused by differences of characters, differences of language, illiteracy and physical disability, as well as disruption of communication caused by presence or absence of characters. Also, although Hangul does not appear on the surface, it will operate on the basis of the system and will inform the world of the value of Hangul.

The apparatus described above may be implemented as a hardware component, a software component, and / or a combination of hardware components and software components. For example, the apparatus and components described in the embodiments may be implemented as a processor, a controller, an arithmetic logic unit (ALU), a digital signal processor, a microcomputer, a field programmable gate array (FPGA), a programmable logic unit, a microprocessor, or any other device capable of executing and responding to instructions. The processing device may execute an operating system (OS) and one or more software applications running on the operating system. The processing device may also access, store, manipulate, process, and generate data in response to execution of the software. For ease of understanding, the processing apparatus may be described as being used singly, but those skilled in the art will recognize that the processing apparatus may have a plurality of processing elements and / As shown in FIG.
