Neural vocoders have recently advanced waveform generation, yielding natural and expressive audio. Among these approaches, iSTFT-based vocoders have recently gained attention. They predict a complex-valued spectrogram and then synthesize the waveform via iSTFT, thereby avoiding learned upsampling st…
Recent advancements in speech synthesis have significantly improved the audio quality and pronunciation of synthesized speech. To further advance toward human-like conversational speech synthesis, this paper presents FillerSpeech, a novel speech synthesis framework that enables natural filler insert
Recently, there has been a growing demand for conversational speech synthesis (CSS) that generates more natural speech by considering the conversational context. To address this, we introduce JELLY, a novel CSS framework that integrates emotion recognition and context reasoning for generating approp…
