Abstract

This comprehensive paper delves into the forefront of personalized voice synthesis within artificial intelligence (AI), spotlighting the Dynamic Individual Voice Synthesis Engine (DIVSE). DIVSE represents a groundbreaking leap in text-to-voice (TTS) technology, uniquely focusing on adapting and personalizing voice outputs to match individual vocal characteristics. The research underlines the gap in current AI-generated voices, which, while technically advanced, fall short in replicating the unique individuality and expressiveness intrinsic to human speech. It outlines the challenges and advancements in personalized voice synthesis, emphasizing the importance of emotional expressiveness, accent and dialect variability, and capturing individual voice traits. The architecture of DIVSE is meticulously detailed, showcasing its three core components: Voice Characteristic Learning Module (VCLM), Emotional Tone and Accent Adaptation Module (ETAAM), and Dynamic Speech Synthesis Engine (DSSE). The innovative approach of DIVSE lies in its adaptive learning capability, which evolves over time to tailor voice outputs to specific user traits. The paper presents a rigorous experimental setup, utilizing accepted datasets and personalization metrics like Mean Opinion Score (MOS) and Emotional Alignment Score, to validate DIVSE's superiority over mainstream models. The results depict a clear advancement in achieving higher personalization and emotional resonance in AI-generated voices.

Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1 Technical Report

Recently, large language model (LLM) based ASR models have achieved significant progress, yet they generally lack support for multi-speaker scenarios, where the cocktail party problem remains a critical bottleneck for further advancing ASR. Existing TS-ASR methods, including end-to-end architectures with speaker embeddings and latest LLM-based explorations suffer from degraded single-speaker performance and the inability to reject when the target speaker is absent. In this paper, we propose Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1, an LLM-based end-to-end TS-ASR architecture. By utilizing reference speech as voiceprint prompts, it directly transcribes the target speaker's speech without requiring speech separation. Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1 maintains competitive performance in single-speaker scenarios, comparable to mainstream ASR models. It also features a negative sample rejection capability, outputting empty text when the target speaker is absent from the mixed speech. Additionally, Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1 supports a Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning mode to provide explicit reasoning steps. Extensive experiments on various synthetic and real-world multispeaker benchmarks demonstrate that Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1 achieves state-of-the-art performance, effectively addressing the cocktail party problem through a unified architecture that balances multispeaker and single-speaker recognition accuracy, along with rejection capability.

EConv-TasNet: Efficient Conv-TasNet for Effective Speech Separation

Conv-TasNet has served as a strong baseline for time-domain speech separation, and many studies have extended it with advanced architectures such as dual-path networks, U-Nets, and attention mechanisms. However, these methods often introduce high computational cost and complexity, limiting their deployment in resource-constrained scenarios. To address this issue, we propose eConv-TasNet, an efficient variant of Conv-TasNet that improves both effectiveness and efficiency without relying on resource-intensive modules. The proposed model consists of a group-wise early-splitting (GES) module and a multi-group feature aggregation (MGFA) module. GES generates discriminative speaker embeddings at intermediate stages, while MGFA progressively aggregates these group-level representations for refined mask estimation. Experimental results show that eConv-TasNet reduces model size by 22.4%, accelerates inference by 18.9%, and improves SI-SNRi by 14.0%-28.0% across three public benchmarks. Moreover, it achieves competitive performance compared with state-of-the-art methods while requiring significantly fewer parameters and lower inference cost. These results demonstrate a favorable efficiency-effectiveness trade-off for edge deployment.
