Parallel Tacotron: Non-Autoregressive and Controllable TTS
Isaac Elias, Heiga Zen, Jonathan Shen +4
Although neural end-to-end text-to-speech models can synthesize highly natural speech, there is still room for improvements to its efficiency and naturalness. This paper proposes a…

Non-Attentive Tacotron: Robust and Controllable Neural TTS Synthesis Including Unsupervised Duration Modeling
Jonathan Shen, Ye Jia, Mike Chrzanowski +4
This paper presents Non-Attentive Tacotron based on the Tacotron 2 text-to-speech model, replacing the attention mechanism with an explicit duration predictor. This improves robust…
