Abstract
The disclosed technology relates to methods, speech processing systems, and non-transitory computer readable media for style extraction in speech synthesis. In some examples, one or more content elements and one or more non-content elements are extracted from input audio data obtained via an audio interface and corresponding to input speech. The one or more non-content elements comprise style elements comprising at least an input pitch. A trained autoencoder is applied to encode the input pitch in a latent representation comprising a low-dimensional vector and combine the one or more content elements and the one or more non-content elements based on the low-dimensional vector to generate a new representation of the input speech. Output audio data is then generated and provided based on the new representation of the input speech. The output audio data comprises a pitch-consistent reconstruction of the input speech.
