JTubeSpeech: corpus of Japanese speech collected from YouTube for speech recognition and speaker verification
Shinnosuke Takamichi, Ludwig Kürzinger, Takaaki Saeki +2
In this paper, we construct a new Japanese speech corpus called "JTubeSpeech." Although recent end-to-end learning requires large-size speech corpora, open-sourced such corpora for…
ESPnet2-TTS: Extending the Edge of TTS Research
Tomoki Hayashi, Ryuichi Yamamoto, Takenori Yoshimura +7
This paper describes ESPnet2-TTS, an end-to-end text-to-speech (E2E-TTS) toolkit. ESPnet2-TTS extends our earlier version, ESPnet-TTS, by adding many new features, including: on-th…
Low-Latency Incremental Text-to-Speech Synthesis with Distilled Context Prediction Network
Takaaki Saeki, Shinnosuke Takamichi, Hiroshi Saruwatari
Incremental text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis generates utterances in small linguistic units for the sake of real-time and low-latency applications. We previously proposed an incremen…
HumanACGAN: conditional generative adversarial network with human-based auxiliary classifier and its evaluation in phoneme perception
Yota Ueda, Kazuki Fujii, Yuki Saito +3
We propose a conditional generative adversarial network (GAN) incorporating humans' perceptual evaluations. A deep neural network (DNN)-based generator of a GAN can represent a rea…
Onoma-to-wave: Environmental sound synthesis from onomatopoeic words
Yuki Okamoto, Keisuke Imoto, Shinnosuke Takamichi +3
In this paper, we propose a framework for environmental sound synthesis from onomatopoeic words. As one way of expressing an environmental sound, we can use an onomatopoeic word, w…
