NonverbalTTS: A Public English Corpus of Text-Aligned Nonverbal Vocalizations with Emotion Annotations for Text-to-Speech
Maksim Borisov, Egor Spirin, Daria Diatlova
Current expressive speech synthesis models are constrained by the limited availability of open-source datasets containing diverse nonverbal vocalizations (NVs). In this work, we in…

DINO-VITS: Data-Efficient Zero-Shot TTS with Self-Supervised Speaker Verification Loss for Noise Robustness
Vikentii Pankov, Valeria Pronina, Alexander Kuzmin +7
We address zero-shot TTS systems' noise-robustness problem by proposing a dual-objective training for the speaker encoder using self-supervised DINO loss. This approach enhances th…
