Few-Shot Cross-Lingual TTS Using Transferable Phoneme Embedding. (arXiv:2206.15427v2 [eess.AS] UPDATED)

This paper studies a transferable phoneme embedding framework that aims to
deal with the cross-lingual text-to-speech (TTS) problem under the few-shot
setting. Transfer learning is a common approach when it comes to few-shot
learning since training from scratch on few-shot training data is bound to
overfit. Still, we find that the naive transfer learning approach fails to
adapt to unseen languages under extremely few-shot settings, where less than 8
minutes of data is provided. We deal with the problem by …
