Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method, a device, and a computer program product for text to speech. The method includes encoding a reference waveform of a first speaker to obtain an encoded style feature separated from a second speaker. The method further includes transferring the encoded style feature to a spectrogram obtained by encoding an input text, to obtain a style transferred spectrogram. The method further includes converting the style transferred spectrogram into a time-domain speech waveform. According to the method for text to speech in the present disclosure, a comparative learning framework can also flexibly and effectively synthesize speech with a style of a target speaker, thus realizing lightweight speech style transfer, making it possible to learn high-quality and recognizable features of speech synthesis, and realizing effective speaker feature learning. In addition, the model will be beneficial to other downstream tasks.
