WavTTS: Towards High-Quality Zero-Shot TTS via Direct Raw Waveform Modeling

Wenxi Chen, Dongya Jia, Yushen Chen +11

Recently, diffusion models operating on VAE latents or mel-spectrograms have become the dominant paradigm for zero-shot TTS. Although these compressed representations improve gener…

On the Distillation Loss Functions of Speech VAE for Unified Reconstruction, Understanding, and Generation

Changhao Cheng, Wei Wang, Wangyou Zhang +4

Continuous speech representations based on Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) have emerged as a promising alternative to traditional spectrogram or discrete token based features for s…

SpeechJudge: Towards Human-Level Judgment for Speech Naturalness

Xueyao Zhang, Chaoren Wang, Huan Liao +8

Aligning large generative models with human feedback is a critical challenge. In speech synthesis, this is particularly pronounced due to the lack of a large-scale human preference…

DiSTAR: Diffusion over a Scalable Token Autoregressive Representation for Speech Generation

Yakun Song, Xiaobin Zhuang, Jiawei Chen +8

Recent attempts to interleave autoregressive (AR) sketchers with diffusion-based refiners over continuous speech representations have shown promise, but they remain brittle under d…
