Model-Based Lip Synchronization With Automatically Translated Systhetic Voice Toward A Multi-Modal Translation System
Tokyo, Japan
August 22-August 25
ISBN: 0-7695-1198-8
In this paper, we introduce a multi-modal English-to-Japanese and Japanese-to-English translation system that also translates the speaker's speech motion while synchronizing it to the translated speech. To retain the speaker's facial expression, we substitute only the speech organ's image with the synthesized one, which is made by a three-dimensional wire-frame model that is adaptable to any speaker. Our approach enables image synthesis and translation with an extremely small database.
