In the context of BERBATEK research project an automatic speech dubbing demo has been developed. The demo integrates three main technologies: automatic text and audio alignment, machine translation and text to speech synthesis. Subtitles for documentary videos in Spanish are automatically generated using the audio and the corresponding script. The subtitles are then translated to Basque and the new audio signal in Basque is generated using AhoTTS.
Bizkaieraren fonotekea is a sound archive created for the Basque variant spoken in the villages located in the area of Bizkaia. You will find all kind of recordings: traditional songs, old sayings, old legends… Through this project we want to show the invaluable treasure of our language and our dialect, not only to the interested people of our world but also to our future generations.
All recordings are transcribed and labeled at different levels which allows the search under different variables. Give it a try!
