Analyzing and Improving Speaker Similarity Assessment for Speech Synthesis
Marc-André Carbonneau, Benjamin van Niekerk, Hugo Seuté +3
Modeling voice identity is challenging due to its multifaceted nature. In generative speech systems, identity is often assessed using automatic speaker verification (ASV) embedding…
EDMSound: Spectrogram Based Diffusion Models for Efficient and High-Quality Audio Synthesis
Ge Zhu, Yutong Wen, Marc-André Carbonneau +1
Audio diffusion models can synthesize a wide variety of sounds. Existing models often operate on the latent domain with cascaded phase recovery modules to reconstruct waveform. Thi…
Daft-Exprt: Cross-Speaker Prosody Transfer on Any Text for Expressive Speech Synthesis
Julian Zaïdi, Hugo Seuté, Benjamin van Niekerk +1
This paper presents Daft-Exprt, a multi-speaker acoustic model advancing the state-of-the-art for cross-speaker prosody transfer on any text. This is one of the most challenging, a…
