X2Streaming-TTS: Causal Token-Level Text-to-Speech from Streaming Text with Speech-State Inheritance

Rime Wen, Zehan Liu, Shawn Qin +4

Streaming text-to-speech is essential for low-latency spoken dialogue systems, yet many systems wait for sentence-level text and are therefore only pseudo-streaming. True token-lev…
