The paper introduces a scalable method for creating pseudo-triplet data—comprising a reference utterance, a direction text, and a modified utterance—to train direction‑following text‑to‑speech (TTS) systems. It uses an impression‑controllable TTS model to generate style variations and a large language model to generate natural language directions from estimated impression differences. Experiments show that these pseudo‑triplets enable stable speaker‑preserving modifications, and combining them with recorded data further improves direction alignment while maintaining speaker similarity.

arXiv:2606. 19325v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing multi-speaker dialogue systems bind speakers to utterances through structured supervision: per-turn tags, multi-stream transcriptions, or learnable speaker embeddings.
Existing multi-speaker dialogue systems bind speakers to utterances through structured supervision: per-turn tags, multi-stream transcriptions, or learnable speaker embeddings. These systems operate within speech-only pipelines that produce clean vocal sequences without the ambient texture of real conversations.
