InstructAudio: Unified speech and music generation with natural language instruction
Chunyu Qiang, Kang Yin, Xiaopeng Wang +8
Text-to-speech (TTS) and text-to-music (TTM) models face significant limitations in instruction-based control. TTS systems usually depend on reference audio for timbre, offer only…
Perturbation Self-Supervised Representations for Cross-Lingual Emotion TTS: Stage-Wise Modeling of Emotion and Speaker
Cheng Gong, Chunyu Qiang, Tianrui Wang +7
Cross-lingual emotional text-to-speech (TTS) aims to produce speech in one language that captures the emotion of a speaker from another language while maintaining the target voice'…
Word-Level Emotional Expression Control in Zero-Shot Text-to-Speech Synthesis
Tianrui Wang, Haoyu Wang, Meng Ge +10
While emotional text-to-speech (TTS) has made significant progress, most existing research remains limited to utterance-level emotional expression and fails to support word-level c…
SecoustiCodec: Cross-Modal Aligned Streaming Single-Codecbook Speech Codec
Chunyu Qiang, Haoyu Wang, Cheng Gong +10
Speech codecs serve as a crucial bridge in unifying speech and text language models. Existing codec methods face several challenges in semantic encoding, such as residual paralingu…
RPRA-ADD: Forgery Trace Enhancement-Driven Audio Deepfake Detection
Ruibo Fu, Xiaopeng Wang, Zhengqi Wen +8
Existing methods for deepfake audio detection have demonstrated some effectiveness. However, they still face challenges in generalizing to new forgery techniques and evolving attac…
Efficient Emotion and Speaker Adaptation in LLM-Based TTS via Characteristic-Specific Partial Fine-Tuning
Tianrui Wang, Meng Ge, Cheng Gong +11
While LLM-based TTS models exhibit zero-shot emotion and speaker cloning, their cloning fidelity and pronunciation clarity degrade on unseen domains. Fine-tuning is essential for a…
