OmniVoice: Towards Omnilingual Zero-Shot Text-to-Speech with Diffusion Language Models
Han Zhu, Lingxuan Ye, Wei Kang +7
We present OmniVoice, a massively multilingual zero-shot text-to-speech (TTS) model that scales to over 600 languages. At its core is a novel diffusion language model-style discret…
Flow2GAN: Hybrid Flow Matching and GAN with Multi-Resolution Network for Few-step High-Fidelity Audio Generation
Zengwei Yao, Wei Kang, Han Zhu +8
Existing dominant methods for audio generation include Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) and diffusion-based methods like Flow Matching. GANs suffer from slow convergence duri…
ZipVoice: Fast and High-Quality Zero-Shot Text-to-Speech with Flow Matching
Han Zhu, Wei Kang, Zengwei Yao +6
Existing large-scale zero-shot text-to-speech (TTS) models deliver high speech quality but suffer from slow inference speeds due to massive parameters. To address this issue, this…
k2SSL: A Faster and Better Framework for Self-Supervised Speech Representation Learning
Yifan Yang, Jianheng Zhuo, Zengrui Jin +9
Self-supervised learning (SSL) has achieved great success in speech-related tasks. While Transformer and Conformer architectures have dominated SSL backbones, encoders like Zipform…
CR-CTC: Consistency regularization on CTC for improved speech recognition
Zengwei Yao, Wei Kang, Xiaoyu Yang +7
Connectionist Temporal Classification (CTC) is a widely used method for automatic speech recognition (ASR), renowned for its simplicity and computational efficiency. However, it of…
