Speech synthesiswith AI supportJindřich Matoušek, Faculty of Applied Sciences University of West Bohemia |
You will learn about the latest advancements in computer-aided speech synthesis, also known as TTS. The ultimate aim of this technology is to read any given text without the need for human intervention and produce speech that is indistinguishable from that of a human. Personalized speech synthesizers can be of great help to visually impaired learners, as they can automatically read textbooks to them. They can also be beneficial for individuals who might lose their voice due to vocal cord damage. As part of Czech Radio's GOTT ALWAYS initiative, a digital imprint of the iconic singer's voice has been preserved. |
I love living in an ever-evolving world where additive technologies are constantly advancing. My role involves identifying and developing new business opportunities, managing projects and cultivating strategic partnerships in the field of digital manufacturing, with a particular focus on the automotive, medical and defense sectors. I have previously spearheaded a major project for the development of a digital warehouse app, as well as co-led the construction of a 3D digital manufacturing center. I am one of the co-founders of Applifting, a software studio. I started my journey here as a developer and designer. However, for the last few years, I have been mainly focusing on designing and developing AI-based products. Apart from creating innovative products for our clients, I enjoy attending talks and workshops where I discuss different aspects of corporate culture, especially in the Czech Republic. When I am not working, I love to indulge in my hobbies such as windsurfing or playing Dungeons & Dragons. I lead the Intelligent Automation team at Deloitte CE and also serve as a member of the Intelligent Automation committee for Deloitte Global. My role involves creating innovative business technology solutions that I present to some of the world's largest organizations. I enjoy working with intelligent minds and seeing the tangible impact of our work." I am employed at the Department of Cybernetics at the Faculty of Applied Sciences of the University of West Bohemia in Pilsen and at the NTIS research center. My area of expertise is speech technologies, specifically speech synthesis. I possess extensive experience in both basic and applied research projects. Additionally, I have authored or co-authored over 160 scientific publications, obtained two patents, and achieved more than 35 applied results.Speakers
