We propose AUV, a unified neural audio codec with a single codebook, which enables a favourable reconstruction of speech and further extends to general audio, including vocal, music, and sound. AUV is capable of tackling any 16 kHz mixed-domain audio segment at bit rates around 700 bps. To accomplis…
Flow-matching-based text-to-speech (TTS) models have shown high-quality speech synthesis. However, most current flow-matching-based TTS models still rely on reference transcripts corresponding to the audio prompt for synthesis. This dependency prevents cross-lingual voice cloning when audio prompt t…
This paper introduces F5-TTS, a fully non-autoregressive text-to-speech system based on flow matching with Diffusion Transformer (DiT). Without requiring complex designs such as duration model, text encoder, and phoneme alignment, the text input is simply padded with filler tokens to the same length…
Anthropomorphic robotic hands are seeking to achieve key features such as multi-degree-of-freedom motion ability, bi-directional actuation, high adaptability, and sufficient stiffness. In this research, we propose a 10 active degrees-of-freedom anthropomorphic robotic hand with a soft-rigid hybrid s
