ABSTRACT:
To provide a data process unit and data process unit control program that are suitable for generating acoustic models for unspecified speakers taking distribution of diversifying feature parameters into consideration under such specific conditions as the type of speaker, speech lexicons, speech styles, and speech environment and that are suitable for providing acoustic models intended for unspecified speakers and adapted to speech of a specific person. The data process unit comprises a data classification section, data storing section, pattern model generating section, data control section, mathematical distance calculating section, pattern model converting section, pattern model display section, region dividing section, division changing section, region selecting section, and specific pattern model generating section.
