SAC: Neural Speech Codec with Semantic-Acoustic Dual-Stream Quantization
Wenxi Chen, Xinsheng Wang, Ruiqi Yan +9
Speech codecs that convert continuous speech signals into discrete tokens have become essential for speech language models. However, existing codecs struggle to balance high-qualit…
AUV: Teaching Audio Universal Vector Quantization with Single Nested Codebook
Yushen Chen, Kai Hu, Long Zhou +4
We propose AUV, a unified neural audio codec with a single codebook, which enables a favourable reconstruction of speech and further extends to general audio, including vocal, musi…
Semantic-VAE: Semantic-Alignment Latent Representation for Better Speech Synthesis
Zhikang Niu, Shujie Hu, Jeongsoo Choi +8
Mel-spectrograms have been widely used in zero-shot text-to-speech (TTS); their inherent redundancy leads to inefficiency in text-speech alignment. Compact VAE-based latent represe…
Cross-Lingual F5-TTS: Towards Language-Agnostic Voice Cloning and Speech Synthesis
Qingyu Liu, Yushen Chen, Zhikang Niu +7
Flow-matching-based text-to-speech (TTS) models have shown high-quality speech synthesis. However, most current flow-matching-based TTS models still rely on reference transcripts c…
Traceable TTS: Toward Watermark-Free TTS with Strong Traceability
Yuxiang Zhao, Yunchong Xiao, Yushen Chen +4
Recent advances in Text-To-Speech (TTS) technology have enabled synthetic speech to mimic human voices with remarkable realism, raising significant security concerns. This undersco…
Accelerating Flow-Matching-Based Text-to-Speech via Empirically Pruned Step Sampling
Qixi Zheng, Yushen Chen, Zhikang Niu +4
Flow-matching-based text-to-speech (TTS) models, such as Voicebox, E2 TTS, and F5-TTS, have attracted significant attention in recent years. These models require multiple sampling…
Towards Flow-Matching-based TTS without Classifier-Free Guidance
Yuzhe Liang, Wenzhe Liu, Chunyu Qiang +7
Flow matching has demonstrated strong generative capabilities and has become a core component in modern Text-to-Speech (TTS) systems. To ensure high-quality speech synthesis, Class…
