Leveraging Weakly Supervised Data to Improve End-to-End Speech-to-Text Translation
Ye Jia, Melvin Johnson, Wolfgang Macherey +6
End-to-end Speech Translation (ST) models have many potential advantages when compared to the cascade of Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and text Machine Translation (MT) models…
Hierarchical Generative Modeling for Controllable Speech Synthesis
Wei-Ning Hsu, Yu Zhang, Ron J. Weiss +9
This paper proposes a neural sequence-to-sequence text-to-speech (TTS) model which can control latent attributes in the generated speech that are rarely annotated in the training d…
VoiceFilter: Targeted Voice Separation by Speaker-Conditioned Spectrogram Masking
Quan Wang, Hannah Muckenhirn, Kevin Wilson +7
In this paper, we present a novel system that separates the voice of a target speaker from multi-speaker signals, by making use of a reference signal from the target speaker. We ac…
Synthesizing Diverse, High-Quality Audio Textures
Joseph Antognini, Matt Hoffman, Ron J. Weiss
Texture synthesis techniques based on matching the Gram matrix of feature activations in neural networks have achieved spectacular success in the image domain. In this paper we ext…
Transfer Learning from Speaker Verification to Multispeaker Text-To-Speech Synthesis
Ye Jia, Yu Zhang, Ron J. Weiss +8
We describe a neural network-based system for text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis that is able to generate speech audio in the voice of many different speakers, including those unseen d…
Towards End-to-End Prosody Transfer for Expressive Speech Synthesis with Tacotron
RJ Skerry-Ryan, Eric Battenberg, Ying Xiao +6
We present an extension to the Tacotron speech synthesis architecture that learns a latent embedding space of prosody, derived from a reference acoustic representation containing t…
