Speech-to-Speech Translation
17 papers with code • 1 benchmarks • 5 datasets
Speech-to-speech translation (S2ST) consists on translating speech from one language to speech in another language. This can be done with a cascade of automatic speech recognition (ASR), text-to-text machine translation (MT), and text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis sub-systems, which is text-centric. Recently, works on S2ST without relying on intermediate text representation is emerging.

Direct speech-to-speech translation with a sequence-to-sequence model
We present an attention-based sequence-to-sequence neural network which can directly translate speech from one language into speech in another language, without relying on an intermediate text representation.
Towards Automatic Face-to-Face Translation
As today's digital communication becomes increasingly visual, we argue that there is a need for systems that can automatically translate a video of a person speaking in language A into a target language B with realistic lip synchronization.
ESPnet-ST: All-in-One Speech Translation Toolkit
We present ESPnet-ST, which is designed for the quick development of speech-to-speech translation systems in a single framework.

NeurIPS 2021
Using a similarity metric in that multimodal embedding space, we perform mining of audio in German, French, Spanish and English from Librivox against billions of sentences from Common Crawl.
CVSS Corpus and Massively Multilingual Speech-to-Speech Translation
In addition, CVSS provides normalized translation text which matches the pronunciation in the translation speech.
LibriS2S: A German-English Speech-to-Speech Translation Corpus
In contrast, the activities in the area of speech-to-speech translation is still limited, although it is essential to overcome the language barrier.

We present SpeechMatrix, a large-scale multilingual corpus of speech-to-speech translations mined from real speech of European Parliament recordings.
Joint Pre-Training with Speech and Bilingual Text for Direct Speech to Speech Translation
However, direct S2ST suffers from the data scarcity problem because the corpora from speech of the source language to speech of the target language are very rare.
