Abstract
A system includes a processor that is configured to capture, in real time, speech of each participant in a meeting and convert corresponding audio data into text data, wherein the processor is configured to translate, in real time, the text data into a language understandable by participants, and wherein the processor is configured to convert the translated text into audio and output the audio to other participants.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- circuitry configured to:
- receive, via a communication interface coupled to a packet-switched network, audio data from a plurality of terminal devices in a communication session;
- perform speech recognition on the audio data to generate text data for each terminal device;
- translate the text data into one or more target languages associated with respective terminal devices;
- convert the translated text data into synthesized audio data;
- and
- transmit the synthesized audio data to the respective terminal devices via the communication interface.

A system comprising:
- circuitry configured to:
- receive, via a communication interface coupled to a packet-switched network, audio data from a plurality of terminal devices in a communication session and automatically determine a source language for each audio stream;
- perform speech recognition on the audio data using acoustic models and language models corresponding to the determined source languages to generate text data;
- translate the text data into target languages using a machine translation model and refine the translated text data by transmitting a prompt data structure to a generative neural network model comprising a transformer architecture with a plurality of self-attention layers;
- convert the refined text data into synthesized audio data using a speech synthesis model with prosodic characteristics matched to source speakers;
- store the text data and the translated text data as transcript data in a storage device and generate summary data and action item data from the transcript data using the generative neural network model;
- and
- transmit the synthesized audio data, transcript data, and summary data to the respective terminal devices via the communication interface.
