BACKGROUND

1. Technical Field

The present disclosure generally relates to text to speech synthesis, and particularly to a speech synthesis method, device, and a computer-readable storage medium.

2. Description of Related Art

Text to speech synthesis is a technology which accepts text as input, and creates an appropriate speech signal as output.

In speech synthesis, vocoder is the module that takes the acoustic features as input and predicts the speech signal. Autoregressive and Non-autoregressive are two main kinds of the vocoders. Autoregressive vocoders are based on recurrent architectures and can be lightweight (e.g., wavernn, lpcnet). Non-autoregressive vocoders are based on feedfoward architectures and can be faster but usually larger (e.g., HiFiGAN, WaveGlow). Therefore, there is a need for a method that can provide lightweight, fast and high-quality speech synthesis system.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The disclosure is illustrated by way of example and not by way of limitation in the figures of the accompanying drawings, in which like reference numerals indicate similar elements. It should be noted that references to “an” or “one” embodiment in this disclosure are not necessarily to the same embodiment, and such references can mean “at least one” embodiment.

Vocoders include autoregressive models and non-autoregressive models. Non-autoregressive models are fast, but the model sizes are usually large. The autoregressive models can be lightweight but the inference time cost is relatively higher.

According to the embodiments of the present disclosure: a) the input acoustic. feature sequence is segmented based on the prosodic pauses, e.g., to the segments corresponding to words; b). a non-autoregressive model is used to predict the speech signal for each word in parallel; c) a less-than-ideal quality audio is then generated by combining the word-level speech signals together; d) an autoregressive model is used to predict the residual (between the less-than-ideal quality and the groundtruth) of the audio. By combining the non-autoregressive model and the autoregressive model, the model size is smaller than using only the non-autoregressive model, and it is faster than the audio generated using only the autoregressive model.

The principle of vocoder in the embodiments of the present disclosure is as follows:

$p\left(\frac{\stackrel{\_}{X}}{m}\right)=\prod 𝓅\left(\frac{x_i}{m}\right),$

where X=[x₁, x₂, . . . x_n-1, x_n] denotes the audio to be synthesized, m denotes the input acoustic feature sequence and x_i denotes the i^th segment of the audio; X is the estimated value of X predicted by the parallel model;

$𝓅\left(\frac{x_i}{m}\right)$

is the probability of the value of the i-th audio segment conditioned on the known value m, 0≤i≤n, based on independent preset conditions;

$𝓅\left(\frac{x_i}{m}\right)$

can be processed in parallel. Finally, sampling is performed according to the probability to obtain the estimated value of the audio (i.e., the first audio information).

$p\left(\frac{\stackrel{\_}{X}}{m}\right)$

in the equation above is the first audio information obtained by using the parallel computing model. Another equation is

$p\left(\frac{X}{m}\right)={\prod }_{t=1}^n𝓅\left(\frac{x_t}{\left(x_{\left[1:t-1\right]},m\right),\stackrel{\_}{x}}\right),$

where

$p\left(\frac{X}{m}\right)$

is the second audio information (the residual) obtained by using the autoregressive model; (x_[1:t-1], m) is the second audio information of the (t-1)th segment and m is the acoustic feature; x is the first audio information pred;

$𝓅\left(\frac{x_t}{\left(x_{\left[1:t-1\right]},m\right),\stackrel{\_}{x}}\right)$

is the probability of the value of the t-th segment conditioned on the previous residual prediction results, the acoustic features and the first audio information.

Referring to FIG. 3, in one embodiment, a speech synthesis method may include the following steps.

Step S101: Obtain an acoustic feature sequence of a text to be processed.

In one embodiment, an electronic device can be used to acquire the acoustic feature sequence of the text to be processed from an external device. For example, the electronic device can also obtain the text to be processed from the external device, and extract the acoustic feature sequence from the obtained text to be processed. Alternatively, the electronic device can obtain information input by the user, and generate text to be processed according to the information input by the user. The electronic device may be a vocoder, a computer, or the like.

In one embodiment, the electronic device may use an acoustic feature extraction model to obtain the acoustic feature sequence of the text to be processed. The acoustic feature extraction model can be a convolutional neural network model, a recurrent neural network, and the like.

In one embodiment, the acoustic feature sequence may include a Mel spectrogram or a Mel-scale Frequency Cepstral. Coefficients.

Step S102: Process the acoustic feature sequence by using a non-autoregressive computing model in parallel to obtain the first audio information of the text to be processed.

In one embodiment, the first audio information is the combination of the audio segments predicted by the non-autoregressive model in parallel. The segments can be defined as single word, or sub-sequences of words that has similar character lengths.

In one embodiment, the non-autoregressive computing model may be a parallel neural network model, for example, Wave GAN and Wave Glow.

Step S103: Process the acoustic feature sequence and the first audio information by using an autoregressive computing model to obtain the residual value of the speech signal.

In one embodiment, the autoregressive computing model may be LPCNet or WaveRNN. Since the autoregressive computing model is mainly used to calculate the residual values, the structure of the autoregressive computing model is relatively simple and the processing speed is relatively fast. The autoregressive computing model processes data step by step, and each step of the autoregressive computing model needs to use the processing results of the previous step.

In one embodiment, a residual refers to the difference between an actual observed value and an estimated value (fitting value), and the residual can be regarded as the observed value of an error.

Step S104: Obtain second audio information corresponding to an i-th segment based on the first audio information corresponding to the i-th segment and the residual values corresponding to the first to (i-1)-th segment. A synthesized audio of the text to be processed includes each of the second audio information.

In one embodiment, i=1, 2 . . . n, n is a total number of the segments. The synthesized audio of text to be processed includes ii second audio information.

In one embodiment, after the second audio information is obtained, the second audio information can be sent to an audio playback device, and the second audio information can be, played by the audio playback device.

According to the method of the embodiment above, an acoustic feature sequence of the text to be processed is obtained first, and the acoustic feature sequence is then processed by using a non-autoregressive computing model to obtain the first audio information of the text to be processed. The first audio information includes audio corresponding to each segment. The preliminary converted audio of the text to be processed is obtained by using the non-autoregressive computing model, and the processing of the text to be processed by using the non-autoregressive computing model is faster than that by using the autoregressive computing model. The acoustic feature sequence and the first audio information are then processed by using the autoregressive computing, model to obtain a residual value of the audio corresponding to each segment. Based on the first audio information and the residual value, the synthesized audio of the text to be processed is obtained. In the embodiment above, the autoregressive computing model is used to process the first audio information and the acoustic feature sequence to obtain the residual values, and the final audio information is obtained by using the residual values and the first audio information.

Referring to FIG. 4, in one embodiment, step S103 may include the following steps.

Step S1031: Process the first audio information corresponding to a first segment, the acoustic feature sequence corresponding to the first segment, and a preset residual value by using the autoregressive computing model to obtain the residual value corresponding to the first segment.

In one embodiment, the preset residual value can be set according to actual needs. For example, the preset residual value can be set to 0, 1, and 2.

Specifically, the first audio information corresponding to the first segment, the acoustic feature sequence corresponding to the first segment, and the preset residual value are input into the autoregressive computing model to obtain the residual value corresponding to the first segment.

Step S1032: Process the first audio information corresponding to a j-th segment, the acoustic feature sequence corresponding to the j-th segment, and the residual value corresponding to the (j-1)-th segment to obtain the residual value corresponding to the j-th segment.

In one embodiment, j=2, 3 . . . n.

For example, when j=3, the first audio information corresponding to the third segment, the acoustic feature sequence corresponding to the third segment, and the residual value corresponding to the second segment are processed by the autoregressive computing model to obtain the residual value of the first audio information corresponding to the third segment.

The first audio information corresponding to the j-th segment, the acoustic feature sequence corresponding to the j-th segment, and the residual value corresponding to the (j-1)-th segment are input into the autoregressive computing model to obtain the residual value of the first audio information corresponding to the j-th segment.

According to the embodiment above, the residual value at the previous segment is used to estimate the residual value at the current segment, which can make the obtained residual value at the current segment more accurate.

In one embodiment, step S104 may include the following step: Calculate a sum of the first audio information corresponding to the i-th segment and the residual value corresponding to the i-th segment and use the sum of the first audio information corresponding to the i-th segment and the residual value corresponding to the i-th segment as the second audio information corresponding to the i-th segment.

In one embodiment, the second audio information may be calculated by an audio calculation model described as follows: T_i=t_i+c_i, where T_i is the second audio information corresponding to the i-th segment, t_i is the first audio information corresponding to the i-th segment, c_i is the residual value corresponding to the i-th segment.

In one embodiment, the method may include the following step after step S101: perform sampling processing on the acoustic feature sequence to obtain a processed acoustic feature sequence.

In one embodiment, sampling processing includes upsampling processing and downsampling processing. Upsampling refers to the process of interpolating the value according to the values nearby. Downsampling is a multi-rate digital signal processing technique or the process of reducing the sampling rate of a signal, usually to reduce the data transfer rate or data size.

In one embodiment, the processed acoustic feature sequence is processed by using a non-autoregressive computing model to obtain the first audio information of the text to be processed.

When the sampling rate of the acoustic feature sequence is less than a preset sampling rate of the synthesized audio of the text to be processed, upsampling processing is performed on the acoustic feature sequence to obtain the processed acoustic feature sequence based on a ratio of the sampling rate of the acoustic feature sequence to the sampling rate of the synthesized audio of the text to be processed.

In one embodiment, the sampling rate of the synthesized audio of the text to be processed can be set according to actual needs. The sampling rate of the acoustic feature sequence can be set according to actual needs. Specifically, the acoustic feature sequence is sampled according to a preset time window.

When the sampling rate of the acoustic feature sequence is less than a preset sampling rate of the synthesized audio of the text to be processed, the ratio of the sampling rate of the acoustic feature sequence to the sampling rate of the synthesized audio of the text to be processed is calculated. Upsampling processing is performed based on the ratio.

In one embodiment, when the sampling rate of the acoustic feature sequence is greater than the preset sampling rate of the synthesized audio of the text to be processed, downsampling processing is performed on the acoustic feature sequence to obtain the processed acoustic feature sequence based on the ratio of the sampling rate of the acoustic feature sequence to the sampling rate of the synthesized audio of the text to be processed.

It should be understood that sequence numbers of the foregoing processes do not mean an execution sequence in this embodiment of this disclosure. The execution sequence of the processes should be determined according to functions and internal logic of the processes, and should not be construed as any limitation on the implementation processes of this embodiment of this disclosure.
