While speaker adaptation for end-to-end speech synthesis using speaker embeddings can produce good speaker similarity for speakers seen during training, there remains a gap for zero-shot adaptation to unseen speakers. We investigate…
Deep learning models are becoming predominant in many fields of machine learning. Text-to-Speech (TTS), the process of synthesizing artificial speech from text, is no exception. To this end, a deep neural network is usually trained using a…
In multi-speaker applications is common to have pre-computed models from enrolled speakers. Using these models to identify the instances in which these speakers intervene in a recording is the task of speaker tracking. In this paper, we…
Most state-of-the-art models in natural language processing (NLP) are neural models built on top of large, pre-trained, contextual language models that generate representations of words in context and are fine-tuned for the task at hand.…
A text-to-speech (TTS) model trained to reconstruct speech given text tends towards predictions that are close to the average characteristics of a dataset, failing to model the variations that make human speech sound natural. This problem…
This paper advances phrase break prediction (also known as phrasing) in multi-speaker text-to-speech (TTS) systems. We integrate speaker-specific features by leveraging speaker embeddings to enhance the performance of the phrasing model. We…
This paper proposes an improved approach for open-set speaker identification based on pretrained speaker foundation models. Building upon the previous Speaker Reciprocal Points Learning framework (V1), we first introduce an enhanced…
One-shot voice cloning aims to transform speaker voice and speaking style in speech synthesized from a text-to-speech (TTS) system, where only a shot recording from the target reference speech can be used. Out-of-domain transfer is still a…
Speaker modeling is essential for many related tasks, such as speaker recognition and speaker diarization. The dominant modeling approach is fixed-dimensional vector representation, i.e., speaker embedding. This paper introduces a research…
Transformer-based text to speech (TTS) model (e.g., Transformer TTS~\cite{li2019neural}, FastSpeech~\cite{ren2019fastspeech}) has shown the advantages of training and inference efficiency over RNN-based model (e.g.,…
The task of video-to-speech aims to translate silent video of lip movement to its corresponding audio signal. Previous approaches to this task are generally limited to the case of a single speaker, but a method that accounts for multiple…
In this paper, we explore the possibility of speech synthesis from low quality found data using only limited number of samples of target speaker. We try to extract only the speaker embedding from found data of target speaker unlike previous…
Recently, there have been attempts to integrate various speech processing tasks into a unified model. However, few previous works directly demonstrated that joint optimization of diverse tasks in multitask speech models has positive…
Large-scale auto-regressive language models pretrained on massive text have demonstrated their impressive ability to perform new natural language tasks with only a few text examples, without the need for fine-tuning. Recent studies further…
There are many use cases in singing synthesis where creating voices from small amounts of data is desirable. In text-to-speech there have been several promising results that apply voice cloning techniques to modern deep learning based…
The recent advances in deep learning are mostly driven by availability of large amount of training data. However, availability of such data is not always possible for specific tasks such as speaker recognition where collection of large…
This paper proposes a guided speaker embedding extraction system, which extracts speaker embeddings of the target speaker using speech activities of target and interference speakers as clues. Several methods for long-form overlapped…
Current state-of-the-art speech recognition models are trained to map acoustic signals into sub-lexical units. While these models demonstrate superior performance, they remain vulnerable to out-of-distribution conditions such as background…
Recent advances on prompt-tuning cast few-shot classification tasks as a masked language modeling problem. By wrapping input into a template and using a verbalizer which constructs a mapping between label space and label word space,…
Existing methods for few-shot speaker identification (FSSI) obtain high accuracy, but their computational complexities and model sizes need to be reduced for lightweight applications. In this work, we propose a FSSI method using a…
