BASE TTS: Lessons from building a billion-parameter Text-to-Speech model on 100K hours of data

no code implementations12 Feb 2024 Mateusz Łajszczak, Guillermo Cámbara, Yang Li, Fatih Beyhan, Arent van Korlaar, Fan Yang, Arnaud Joly, Álvaro Martín-Cortinas, Ammar Abbas, Adam Michalski, Alexis Moinet, Sri Karlapati, Ewa Muszyńska, Haohan Guo, Bartosz Putrycz, Soledad López Gambino, Kayeon Yoo, Elena Sokolova, Thomas Drugman

Echoing the widely-reported "emergent abilities" of large language models when trained on increasing volume of data, we show that BASE TTS variants built with 10K+ hours and 500M+ parameters begin to demonstrate natural prosody on textually complex sentences.

Enhancing audio quality for expressive Neural Text-to-Speech

no code implementations13 Aug 2021 Abdelhamid Ezzerg, Adam Gabrys, Bartosz Putrycz, Daniel Korzekwa, Daniel Saez-Trigueros, David McHardy, Kamil Pokora, Jakub Lachowicz, Jaime Lorenzo-Trueba, Viacheslav Klimkov

Artificial speech synthesis has made a great leap in terms of naturalness as recent Text-to-Speech (TTS) systems are capable of producing speech with similar quality to human recordings.

Universal Neural Vocoding with Parallel WaveNet

no code implementations1 Feb 2021 Yunlong Jiao, Adam Gabrys, Georgi Tinchev, Bartosz Putrycz, Daniel Korzekwa, Viacheslav Klimkov

We present a universal neural vocoder based on Parallel WaveNet, with an additional conditioning network called Audio Encoder.

Towards achieving robust universal neural vocoding

1 code implementation4 Jul 2019 Jaime Lorenzo-Trueba, Thomas Drugman, Javier Latorre, Thomas Merritt, Bartosz Putrycz, Roberto Barra-Chicote, Alexis Moinet, Vatsal Aggarwal

This vocoder is shown to be capable of generating speech of consistently good quality (98% relative mean MUSHRA when compared to natural speech) regardless of whether the input spectrogram comes from a speaker or style seen during training or from an out-of-domain scenario when the recording conditions are studio-quality.
