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…
