On the Semantic Latent Space of Diffusion-Based Text-To-Speech Models (2024.acl-short)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Denoising Diffusion Models (DDMs) are a powerful generative tool for text-to-speech (TTS) but their semantic capabilities are unknown and control of synthesized speech’s vocal properties remains a challenge. |
| Approach: | They explore the latent space of frozen TTS models composed of latent bottleneck activations of the DDM’s denoiser and propose methods for finding semantic directions within it. |
| Outcome: | The proposed methods enable off-the-shelf audio editing without any training, architectural changes or data requirements. |
