Lightweight Zero-shot Text-to-Speech with Mixture of Adapters
Kenichi Fujita, Takanori Ashihara, Marc Delcroix +1
The advancements in zero-shot text-to-speech (TTS) methods, based on large-scale models, have demonstrated high fidelity in reproducing speaker characteristics. However, these mode…
Speech Rhythm-Based Speaker Embeddings Extraction from Phonemes and Phoneme Duration for Multi-Speaker Speech Synthesis
Kenichi Fujita, Atsushi Ando, Yusuke Ijima
This paper proposes a speech rhythm-based method for speaker embeddings to model phoneme duration using a few utterances by the target speaker. Speech rhythm is one of the essentia…
What Do Self-Supervised Speech and Speaker Models Learn? New Findings From a Cross Model Layer-Wise Analysis
Takanori Ashihara, Marc Delcroix, Takafumi Moriya +3
Self-supervised learning (SSL) has attracted increased attention for learning meaningful speech representations. Speech SSL models, such as WavLM, employ masked prediction training…
Noise-robust zero-shot text-to-speech synthesis conditioned on self-supervised speech-representation model with adapters
Kenichi Fujita, Hiroshi Sato, Takanori Ashihara +4
The zero-shot text-to-speech (TTS) method, based on speaker embeddings extracted from reference speech using self-supervised learning (SSL) speech representations, can reproduce sp…
