• Abstract summary: This paper describes the AS-NU systems for two tracks in MultiSpeaker Multi-Style Voice Cloning Challenge (M2VoC) The first track focuses on using a small number of 100 target utterances for voice cloning, while the second track focuses on using only 5 target utterances for voice cloning. Due to the serious lack of data in the second track, we selected the speaker most similar to the target speaker from the training data of the TTS system, and used the speaker's utterances and the given 5 target utterances to fine-tune our model.

• Abstract: This paper describes the AS-NU systems for two tracks in MultiSpeaker Multi-Style Voice Cloning Challenge (M2VoC). The first track focuses on using a small number of 100 target utterances for voice cloning, while the second track focuses on using only 5 target utterances for voice cloning. Due to the serious lack of data in the second track, we selected the speaker most similar to the target speaker from the training data of the TTS system, and used the speaker's utterances and the given 5 target utterances to fine-tune our model. The evaluation results show that our systems on the two tracks perform similarly in terms of quality, but there is still a clear gap between the similarity score of the second track and the similarity score of the first track.

  Existing end-to-end piano A2S systems have been trained and evaluated with only synthetic data. We propose a sequence-to-sequence (Seq2Seq) model with a hierarchical decoder that aligns with the hierarchical structure of musical scores. We propose a two-stage training scheme, which involves pre-training the model using an expressive performance rendering system on synthetic audio, followed by fine-tuning the model using recordings of human performance.

Results show that the proposed approach can produce high quality rapping/singing voice with increased naturalness.

  We propose a semi-supervised learning approach for multi-speaker text-to-speech (TTS) A multi-speaker TTS model can learn from the untranscribed audio via the proposed encoder-decoder framework with discrete speech representation. We found the model can benefit from the proposed semi-supervised learning approach even when part of the unpaired speech data is noisy.
