Simple and Effective Unsupervised Speech Synthesis
Alexander H. Liu, Cheng-I Jeff Lai, Wei-Ning Hsu +3
We introduce the first unsupervised speech synthesis system based on a simple, yet effective recipe. The framework leverages recent work in unsupervised speech recognition as well…
ContentVec: An Improved Self-Supervised Speech Representation by Disentangling Speakers
Kaizhi Qian, Yang Zhang, Heting Gao +5
Self-supervised learning in speech involves training a speech representation network on a large-scale unannotated speech corpus, and then applying the learned representations to do…
On the Interplay Between Sparsity, Naturalness, Intelligibility, and Prosody in Speech Synthesis
Cheng-I Jeff Lai, Erica Cooper, Yang Zhang +8
Are end-to-end text-to-speech (TTS) models over-parametrized? To what extent can these models be pruned, and what happens to their synthesis capabilities? This work serves as a sta…
SSAST: Self-Supervised Audio Spectrogram Transformer
Yuan Gong, Cheng-I Jeff Lai, Yu-An Chung +1
Recently, neural networks based purely on self-attention, such as the Vision Transformer (ViT), have been shown to outperform deep learning models constructed with convolutional ne…
