Previous works in zero-shot text-to-speech (ZS-TTS) have attempted to enhance its systems by enlarging the training data through crowd-sourcing or augmenting existing speech data. However, the use of low-quality data has led to a decline in the overall system performance. To avoid such degradation,…
This paper proposes a multi-emotion, multi-lingual, and multi-speaker text-to-speech (MELS-TTS) system, employing disentangled style tokens for effective emotion transfer. In speech encompassing various attributes, such as emotional state, speaker identity, and linguistic style, disentangling these…
Neural vocoders based on the generative adversarial neural network (GAN) have been widely used due to their fast inference speed and lightweight networks while generating high-quality speech waveforms. Since the perceptually important speech components are primarily concentrated in the low-frequency…
Recently, it has become easier to obtain speech data from various media such as the internet or YouTube, but directly utilizing them to train a neural text-to-speech (TTS) model is difficult. The proportion of clean speech is insufficient and the remainder includes background music. Even with the gl…
