Text to speech (TTS) has made rapid progress in both academia and industry in
recent years. Some questions naturally arise that whether a TTS system can
achieve human-level quality, how to define/judge that quality and how to
achieve it. In this paper, we answer these questions by first defining the
human-level quality based on the statistical significance of subjective measure
and introducing appropriate guidelines to judge it, and then developing a TTS
system called NaturalSpeech that achieves human-level quality on …
