arXiv:2606. 14922v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: For the last couple of years, the field of speech synthesis has improved dramatically thanks to deep learning.
arXiv:2606. 07293v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speech Emotion Conversion (SEC) aims to transform the emotion of a source utterance into a target emotion while preserving content and speaker identity.
arXiv:2602. 03420v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Emotional expression in human speech is nuanced and compositional, often involving multiple, sometimes conflicting, affective cues that may diverge from linguistic content.
arXiv:2607. 15755v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conversational Speech Synthesis (CSS) aims to synthesize speech with human-like emotional expression and contextual consistency in user-agent interactions.
arXiv:2606. 09837v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Emotional interaction is increasingly crucial for conversational AI, yet current systems lack a self-emotion determination mechanism to drive the streaming text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis.
arXiv:2608. 13613v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent breakthroughs in generative models have made text-to-voice generation (TTV) possible, enabling the synthesis of speech directly from textual voice descriptions.
arXiv:2606. 30356v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We propose Online Latent prediction with Invariant Views and rEconstruction (OLIVE), a self-supervised speech representation learning framework that jointly optimizes analysis and synthesis objectives.
arXiv:2608. 11590v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Human voice generation has made rapid progress in speech generation, singing voice generation, voice cloning, and voice editing.
arXiv:2606. 27717v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Prosodic emphasis varies across languages, emotions, and speaking styles, yet existing emphasis detection models are largely trained and evaluated on monolingual neutral read speech.
arXiv:2603. 04219v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We investigate the use of zero-shot text-to-speech (ZS-TTS) as a data augmentation source for low-resource personalized speech synthesis.
arXiv:2607. 03985v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Advanced neural technologies in speech synthesis and voice conversion (VC) have introduced severe risks to personal privacy, necessitating robust Speaker Anonymization Systems (SAS).
arXiv:2608. 08638v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Zero-shot text-to-speech (TTS) now supports interactive assistants, personalized media, and accessibility tools.
arXiv:2607. 05276v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speaker embeddings, or x-vectors, are widely used to represent speaker identity and speaker-related attributes, but existing embedding extractors are typically descriptive rather than generative: they map an observed speech segment to an x-vector, which is then used for downstream applications.
