1. A talker prediction method comprising:
obtaining a voice from a plurality of talkers;
recording a conversation history of the plurality of talkers;
identifying a talker of the obtained voice;
detecting a part that the identified talker has talked from the conversation history; and
predicting a next talker among the plurality of talkers based on the identified talker and the conversation history,
wherein the next talker is predicted according to talk probability of a talker talking immediately after the detected part.
