Rethinking Discrete Speech Representation Tokens for Accent Generation
Jinzuomu Zhong, Yi Wang, Korin Richmond +1
Discrete Speech Representation Tokens (DSRTs) have become a foundational component in speech generation. While prior work has extensively studied phonetic and speaker information i…
Pairwise Evaluation of Accent Similarity in Speech Synthesis
Jinzuomu Zhong, Suyuan Liu, Dan Wells +1
Despite growing interest in generating high-fidelity accents, evaluating accent similarity in speech synthesis has been underexplored. We aim to enhance both subjective and objecti…
AccentBox: Towards High-Fidelity Zero-Shot Accent Generation
Jinzuomu Zhong, Korin Richmond, Zhiba Su +1
While recent Zero-Shot Text-to-Speech (ZS-TTS) models have achieved high naturalness and speaker similarity, they fall short in accent fidelity and control. To address this issue,…
Prior-agnostic Multi-scale Contrastive Text-Audio Pre-training for Parallelized TTS Frontend Modeling
Quanxiu Wang, Hui Huang, Mingjie Wang +3
Over the past decade, a series of unflagging efforts have been dedicated to developing highly expressive and controllable text-to-speech (TTS) systems. In general, the holistic TTS…
Multi-Modal Automatic Prosody Annotation with Contrastive Pretraining of SSWP
Jinzuomu Zhong, Yang Li, Hui Huang +6
In expressive and controllable Text-to-Speech (TTS), explicit prosodic features significantly improve the naturalness and controllability of synthesised speech. However, manual pro…
