Abstract
A method for generating frame values using a key frame network includes receiving a text utterance having at least one phoneme, and for each respective phoneme of the at least one phoneme, predicting, using a predictive model, a fixed quantity of key frames. Each respective key frame of the fixed quantity of key frames includes a representation of a component of the respective phoneme. The method also includes generating, using the fixed quantity of key frames, a plurality of frame values. Here, each respective frame value of the plurality of frame values is representative of a fixed-duration of audio.
