With the rapid development of neural network architectures and speech processing models, singing voice synthesis with neural networks is becoming the cutting-edge technique of digital music production. In this work, in order to explore how to improve the quality and efficiency of singing voice synthesis, in this work, we use encoder-decoder neural models and a number of vocoders to achieve singing voice synthesis. We conduct experiments to demonstrate that the models can be trained using voice data with pitch information, lyrics and beat information, and the trained models can produce smooth, clear and natural singing voice that is close to real human voice. As the models work in the end-to-end manner, they allow users who are not domain experts to directly produce singing voice by arranging pitches, lyrics and beats.

As an indispensable part of modern human-computer interaction system, speech synthesis technology helps users get the output of intelligent machine more easily and intuitively, thus has attracted more and more attention. Due to the limitations of hig
h complexity and low efficiency of traditional speech synthesis technology, the current research focus is the deep learning-based end-to-end speech synthesis technology, which has more powerful modeling ability and a simpler pipeline. It mainly consists of three modules: text front-end, acoustic model, and vocoder. This paper reviews the research status of these three parts, and classifies and compares various methods according to their emphasis. Moreover, this paper also summarizes the open-source speech corpus of English, Chinese and other languages that can be used for speech synthesis tasks, and introduces some commonly used subjective and objective speech quality evaluation method. Finally, some attractive future research directions are pointed out.
In this paper, we propose an end-to-end Mandarin tone classification method from continuous speech utterances utilizing both the spectrogram and the short-term context information as the input. Both spectrograms and context segment features are used
to train the tone classifier. We first divide the spectrogram frames into syllable segments using force alignment results produced by an ASR model. Then we extract the short-term segment features to capture the context information across multiple syllables. Feeding both the spectrogram and the short-term context segment features into an end-to-end model could significantly improve the performance. Experiments are performed on a large-scale open-source Mandarin speech dataset to evaluate the proposed method. Results show that this method improves the classification accuracy from 79.5% to 92.6% on the AISHELL3 database.
Time-aligned lyrics can enrich the music listening experience by enabling karaoke, text-based song retrieval and intra-song navigation, and other applications. Compared to text-to-speech alignment, lyrics alignment remains highly challenging, despite
many attempts to combine numerous sub-modules including vocal separation and detection in an effort to break down the problem. Furthermore, training required fine-grained annotations to be available in some form. Here, we present a novel system based on a modified Wave-U-Net architecture, which predicts character probabilities directly from raw audio using learnt multi-scale representations of the various signal components. There are no sub-modules whose interdependencies need to be optimized. Our training procedure is designed to work with weak, line-level annotations available in the real world. With a mean alignment error of 0.35s on a standard dataset our system outperforms the state-of-the-art by an order of magnitude.
In this paper, we present a streaming end-to-end speech recognition model based on Monotonic Chunkwise Attention (MoCha) jointly trained with enhancement layers. Even though the MoCha attention enables streaming speech recognition with recognition ac
curacy comparable to a full attention-based approach, training this model is sensitive to various factors such as the difficulty of training examples, hyper-parameters, and so on. Because of these issues, speech recognition accuracy of a MoCha-based model for clean speech drops significantly when a multi-style training approach is applied. Inspired by Curriculum Learning [1], we introduce two training strategies: Gradual Application of Enhanced Features (GAEF) and Gradual Reduction of Enhanced Loss (GREL). With GAEF, the model is initially trained using clean features. Subsequently, the portion of outputs from the enhancement layers gradually increases. With GREL, the portion of the Mean Squared Error (MSE) loss for the enhanced output gradually reduces as training proceeds. In experimental results on the LibriSpeech corpus and noisy far-field test sets, the proposed model with GAEF-GREL training strategies shows significantly better results than the conventional multi-style training approach.
Training Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) models under federated learning (FL) settings has attracted a lot of attention recently. However, the FL scenarios often presented in the literature are artificial and fail to capture the complexity of real
FL systems. In this paper, we construct a challenging and realistic ASR federated experimental setup consisting of clients with heterogeneous data distributions using the French and Italian sets of the CommonVoice dataset, a large heterogeneous dataset containing thousands of different speakers, acoustic environments and noises. We present the first empirical study on attention-based sequence-to-sequence End-to-End (E2E) ASR model with three aggregation weighting strategies -- standard FedAvg, loss-based aggregation and a novel word error rate (WER)-based aggregation, compared in two realistic FL scenarios: cross-silo with 10 clients and cross-device with 2K and 4K clients. Our analysis on E2E ASR from heterogeneous and realistic federated acoustic models provides the foundations for future research and development of realistic FL-based ASR applications.
