Text to speech (TTS) has been broadly used to synthesize natural and intelligible speech in different scenarios. Deploying TTS in various end devices such as mobile phones or embedded devices requires extremely small memory usage and inference latency. While non-autoregressive TTS models such as FastSpeech have achieved significantly faster inference speed than autoregressive models, their model size and inference latency are still large for the deployment in resource constrained devices. In this paper, we propose LightSpeech, which leverages neural architecture search~(NAS) to automatically design more lightweight and efficient models based on FastSpeech. We first profile the components of current FastSpeech model and carefully design a novel search space containing various lightweight and potentially effective architectures. Then NAS is utilized to automatically discover well performing architectures within the search space. Experiments show that the model discovered by our method achieves 15x model compression ratio and 6.5x inference speedup on CPU with on par voice quality.

This paper describes a novel text-to-speech (TTS) technique based on deep convolutional neural networks (CNN), without use of any recurrent units. Recurrent neural networks (RNN) have become a standard technique to model sequential data recently, and
this technique has been used in some cutting-edge neural TTS techniques. However, training RNN components often requires a very powerful computer, or a very long time, typically several days or weeks. Recent other studies, on the other hand, have shown that CNN-based sequence synthesis can be much faster than RNN-based techniques, because of high parallelizability. The objective of this paper is to show that an alternative neural TTS based only on CNN alleviate these economic costs of training. In our experiment, the proposed Deep Convolutional TTS was sufficiently trained overnight (15 hours), using an ordinary gaming PC equipped with two GPUs, while the quality of the synthesized speech was almost acceptable.
Single Image Super-Resolution (SISR) tasks have achieved significant performance with deep neural networks. However, the large number of parameters in CNN-based methods for SISR tasks require heavy computations. Although several efficient SISR models
have been recently proposed, most are handcrafted and thus lack flexibility. In this work, we propose a novel differentiable Neural Architecture Search (NAS) approach on both the cell-level and network-level to search for lightweight SISR models. Specifically, the cell-level search space is designed based on an information distillation mechanism, focusing on the combinations of lightweight operations and aiming to build a more lightweight and accurate SR structure. The network-level search space is designed to consider the feature connections among the cells and aims to find which information flow benefits the cell most to boost the performance. Unlike the existing Reinforcement Learning (RL) or Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) based NAS methods for SISR tasks, our search pipeline is fully differentiable, and the lightweight SISR models can be efficiently searched on both the cell-level and network-level jointly on a single GPU. Experiments show that our methods can achieve state-of-the-art performance on the benchmark datasets in terms of PSNR, SSIM, and model complexity with merely 68G Multi-Adds for $times 2$ and 18G Multi-Adds for $times 4$ SR tasks.

This paper investigates how to leverage a DurIAN-based average model to enable a new speaker to have both accurate pronunciation and fluent cross-lingual speaking with very limited monolingual data. A weakness of the recently proposed end-to-end text
-to-speech (TTS) systems is that robust alignment is hard to achieve, which hinders it to scale well with very limited data. To cope with this issue, we introduce AdaDurIAN by training an improved DurIAN-based average model and leverage it to few-shot learning with the shared speaker-independent content encoder across different speakers. Several few-shot learning tasks in our experiments show AdaDurIAN can outperform the baseline end-to-end system by a large margin. Subjective evaluations also show that AdaDurIAN yields higher mean opinion score (MOS) of naturalness and more preferences of speaker similarity. In addition, we also apply AdaDurIAN to emotion transfer tasks and demonstrate its promising performance.
We present Deep Voice 3, a fully-convolutional attention-based neural text-to-speech (TTS) system. Deep Voice 3 matches state-of-the-art neural speech synthesis systems in naturalness while training ten times faster. We scale Deep Voice 3 to data set
sizes unprecedented for TTS, training on more than eight hundred hours of audio from over two thousand speakers. In addition, we identify common error modes of attention-based speech synthesis networks, demonstrate how to mitigate them, and compare several different waveform synthesis methods. We also describe how to scale inference to ten million queries per day on one single-GPU server.
Given a piece of speech and its transcript text, text-based speech editing aims to generate speech that can be seamlessly inserted into the given speech by editing the transcript. Existing methods adopt a two-stage approach: synthesize the input text
using a generic text-to-speech (TTS) engine and then transform the voice to the desired voice using voice conversion (VC). A major problem of this framework is that VC is a challenging problem which usually needs a moderate amount of parallel training data to work satisfactorily. In this paper, we propose a one-stage context-aware framework to generate natural and coherent target speech without any training data of the target speaker. In particular, we manage to perform accurate zero-shot duration prediction for the inserted text. The predicted duration is used to regulate both text embedding and speech embedding. Then, based on the aligned cross-modality input, we directly generate the mel-spectrogram of the edited speech with a transformer-based decoder. Subjective listening tests show that despite the lack of training data for the speaker, our method has achieved satisfactory results. It outperforms a recent zero-shot TTS engine by a large margin.
