Grapheme-Coherent Phonemic and Prosodic Annotation of Speech by Implicit and Explicit Grapheme Conditioning
Hien Ohnaka, Yuma Shirahata, Byeongseon Park +1
We propose a model to obtain phonemic and prosodic labels of speech that are coherent with graphemes. Unlike previous methods that simply fine-tune a pre-trained ASR model with the…
Comparative Analysis of Fast and High-Fidelity Neural Vocoders for Low-Latency Streaming Synthesis in Resource-Constrained Environments
Reo Yoneyama, Masaya Kawamura, Ryo Terashima +2
In real-time speech synthesis, neural vocoders often require low-latency synthesis through causal processing and streaming. However, streaming introduces inefficiencies absent in b…
BitTTS: Highly Compact Text-to-Speech Using 1.58-bit Quantization and Weight Indexing
Masaya Kawamura, Takuya Hasumi, Yuma Shirahata +1
This paper proposes a highly compact, lightweight text-to-speech (TTS) model for on-device applications. To reduce the model size, the proposed model introduces two techniques. Fir…
