Text to speech for skype

Before the end of 2014, Microsoft plans to release a beta Skype app that will enable real-time translation of people verbally speaking in different languages.Skype Translator, as Microsoft is calling it, appears to be an extension of the real-time translation Microsoft has been developing over ten years. Microsoft has previously shown the technology in action with real-time translation of speech delivered by Microsoft’s Rick Rashid in a speech in China; most recently, Microsoft released Bing Translator, which performs the same function as Skype Translator, just on Windows 8.“We felt speech translation was a very natural evolution of the text-translation work we’ve been doing,” said Chris Wendt, a program manager for the machine language team at Microsoft, in a blog post. As Microsoft notes, however, the new Skype Translator simply makes more sense than a dedicated app, given the different scenarios in which Skype is used: in business, to talk to friends and relatives internationally, and in education. Satya Nadella, Microsoft’s new chief executive, introduced the new Skype Translator app at the Code Conference in southern California, where Gurdeep Pall, Microsoft’s corporate vice president of Skype and Lync, demonstrated the technology with a German-speaking colleague. The demonstration not only provided an oral translation, but a text-based one as well. The original text, as understood by Skype, appeared at the bottom. Although the text appeared scripted, the demonstration was still impressive. The German speaker, identified as Diana Heinrichs, however, clearly enunicated each word precisely, while Pall was less formal. While it’s unclear how the beta app of Skype Translator will relate to Skype itself (will the two remain separate apps?) it’s certainly clear that Microsoft is moving ahead in terms of real-time translation. Microsoft positioned the technology as the real-life instantiation of the Star Trek universal translator—while that may still be in the realm of science fiction, reality appears to be not too far off.

Skype Translator performs instant translation of text chats in over 40 languages, but its marquee feature is real-time, spoken translation between English and Spanish speakers. (Microsoft, which owns Skype, would not comment on what other languages it is planning to incorporate into the software or when we might expect them.)Unlike Star Trek’s fictional translator, Skype Translator is designed to emulate a human interpreter who acts as an intermediary between the two primary speakers. This virtual interpreter is customizable: I could select a male or female voice and even set its tolerance for translating profanity (I didn’t put that feature to the test). Then, much as a human translator would, it “listened” to my speech, waited for a pause, and spoke my words in Spanish to the Microsoft consultant on the other end of the call. The spoken translation was audible to both of us. And it was often surprisingly accurate.In theory, Skype translation could be transformative. It’s like a version of the discreet live translation that world leaders enjoy when visiting the United Nations. In practice, though, it can be more like having Apple’s Siri (or Microsoft’s Cortana) constantly interrupting your conversation and talking over you.Even such crude automated translation is fairly remarkable. It is notoriously difficult for machines to recognize words and phrases quickly and accurately, and Skype Translator achieves a high level of accuracy using a technique known as deep learning. Software running on Microsoft’s servers was trained to recognize words using methods of information processing loosely modeled on the way a biological brain functions (see “10 Breakthrough Technologies 2013: Deep Learning”).Deep learning lets Microsoft’s computers reliably transform a stream of audio speech into chunks of text, which can then be analyzed using standard translation methods. As more people use the software, this system should become more effective
