We present a novel approach to any-to-one (A2O) voice conversion (VC) in a sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq) framework. A2O VC aims to convert any speaker, including those unseen during training, to a fixed target speaker. We utilize…

We propose SelfVC, a training strategy to iteratively improve a voice conversion model with self-synthesized examples. Previous efforts on voice conversion focus on factorizing speech into explicitly disentangled representations that…

The creation of artificial polyglot voices remains a challenging task, despite considerable progress in recent years. This paper investigates self-supervised learning for voice conversion to create native-sounding polyglot voices. We…
