Requirements and Motivations of Low-Resource Speech Synthesis for Language Revitalization (2022.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing research on speech synthesis systems for three Indigenous languages in Canada requires tens of hours of audio recordings to be trained. |
| Approach: | They build a system for three Indigenous languages spoken in Canada using 1 hour of training data and 10 hours of data to train low-resource models. |
| Outcome: | The proposed system can produce speech with comparable naturalness to a Tacotron2 model trained with 10 hours of data. |
