Neural vocoders model the raw audio waveform and synthesize high-quality audio, but even the highly efficient ones, like MB-MelGAN and LPCNet, fail to run real-time on a low-end device like a smartglass. A pure digital signal processing…
Most recent speech synthesis systems are composed of a synthesizer and a vocoder. However, the existing synthesizers and vocoders can only be matched to acoustic features extracted with a specific configuration. Hence, we can't combine…
