| Challenge: | Using multi-speaker text-to-speech systems, we build systems for Javanese and Sundanese . progress in this direction is difficult because languages in the long tail of the distribution of the majority of the world's languages lack adequate linguistic resources . |
| Approach: | They present multi-speaker text-to-speech corpora for Javanese and Sundanese . they use mixed-gender recordings to build multi-language text-based systems . |
| Outcome: | The proposed multi-speaker text-to-speech systems outperform the systems constructed from a single language. |
