Improving the quality of neural TTS using long-form content and multi-speaker multi-style modeling

no code implementations20 Dec 2022 Tuomo Raitio, Javier Latorre, Andrea Davis, Tuuli Morrill, Ladan Golipour

Neural text-to-speech (TTS) can provide quality close to natural speech if an adequate amount of high-quality speech material is available for training.

Vocal effort modeling in neural TTS for improving the intelligibility of synthetic speech in noise

no code implementations20 Mar 2022 Tuomo Raitio, Petko Petkov, Jiangchuan Li, Muhammed Shifas, Andrea Davis, Yannis Stylianou

We present a neural text-to-speech (TTS) method that models natural vocal effort variation to improve the intelligibility of synthetic speech in the presence of noise.

Hierarchical prosody modeling and control in non-autoregressive parallel neural TTS

no code implementations6 Oct 2021 Tuomo Raitio, Jiangchuan Li, Shreyas Seshadri

Neural text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis can generate speech that is indistinguishable from natural speech.

Emphasis control for parallel neural TTS

no code implementations6 Oct 2021 Shreyas Seshadri, Tuomo Raitio, Dan Castellani, Jiangchuan Li

Recent parallel neural text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis methods are able to generate speech with high fidelity while maintaining high performance.

On-device neural speech synthesis

no code implementations17 Sep 2021 Sivanand Achanta, Albert Antony, Ladan Golipour, Jiangchuan Li, Tuomo Raitio, Ramya Rasipuram, Francesco Rossi, Jennifer Shi, Jaimin Upadhyay, David Winarsky, Hepeng Zhang

Recent advances in text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis, such as Tacotron and WaveRNN, have made it possible to construct a fully neural network based TTS system, by coupling the two components together.

Whispered and Lombard Neural Speech Synthesis

no code implementations13 Jan 2021 Qiong Hu, Tobias Bleisch, Petko Petkov, Tuomo Raitio, Erik Marchi, Varun Lakshminarasimhan

2) Although our speaker verification (SV) model is not explicitly trained to discriminate different speaking styles, and no Lombard and whisper voice is used for pre-training this system, the SV model can be used as a style encoder for generating different style embeddings as input for the Tacotron system.

Speaker Verification Speech Synthesis

Controllable neural text-to-speech synthesis using intuitive prosodic features

no code implementations14 Sep 2020 Tuomo Raitio, Ramya Rasipuram, Dan Castellani

Modern neural text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis can generate speech that is indistinguishable from natural speech.
