Controllability and Interpretability in Affective Speech Synthesis

Bastian Schnell

Thanks to Deep Learning Text-To-Speech (TTS) has achieved high audio quality with large databases. But at the same time the complex models lost any ability to control or interpret the generation process. For the big challenge of affective TTS it is infeasi ...
