PFluxTTS: Hybrid Flow-Matching TTS with Robust Cross-Lingual Voice Cloning and Inference-Time Model Fusion

We present PFluxTTS, a hybrid text-to-speech system addressing three gaps in flow-matching TTS: the stability-naturalness trade-off, weak cross-lingual voice cloning, and limited audio quality from low-rate mel features. Our contributions are: (1) a dual-decoder design combining duration-guided and alignment-free models through inference-time vector-field fusion; (2) robust cloning using a sequence of speech-prompt embeddings in a FLUX-based decoder, preserving speaker traits across languages without prompt transcripts; and (3) a modified PeriodWave vocoder with super-resolution to 48 kHz. On cross-lingual in-the-wild data, PFluxTTS clearly outperforms F5-TTS, FishSpeech, and SparkTTS, matches ChatterBox in naturalness (MOS 4.11) while achieving 23% lower WER (6.9% vs. 9.0%), and surpasses ElevenLabs in speaker similarity (+0.32 SMOS). The system remains robust in challenging scenarios where most open-source models fail, while requiring only short reference audio and no extra training.

Automatic Heteronym Resolution Pipeline Using RAD-TTS Aligners

Grapheme-to-phoneme (G2P) transduction is part of the standard text-to-speech (TTS) pipeline. However, G2P conversion is difficult for languages that contain heteronyms -- words that have one spelling but can be pronounced in multiple ways. G2P datasets with annotated heteronyms are limited in size and expensive to create, as human labeling remains the primary method for heteronym disambiguation. We propose a RAD-TTS Aligner-based pipeline to automatically disambiguate heteronyms in datasets that contain both audio with text transcripts. The best pronunciation can be chosen by generating all possible candidates for each heteronym and scoring them with an Aligner model. The resulting labels can be used to create training datasets for use in both multi-stage and end-to-end G2P systems.

Mixer-TTS: non-autoregressive, fast and compact text-to-speech model conditioned on language model embeddings

This paper describes Mixer-TTS, a non-autoregressive model for mel-spectrogram generation. The model is based on the MLP-Mixer architecture adapted for speech synthesis. The basic Mixer-TTS contains pitch and duration predictors, with the latter being trained with an unsupervised TTS alignment framework. Alongside the basic model, we propose the extended version which additionally uses token embeddings from a pre-trained language model. Basic Mixer-TTS and its extended version achieve a mean opinion score (MOS) of 4.05 and 4.11, respectively, compared to a MOS of 4.27 of original LJSpeech samples. Both versions have a small number of parameters and enable much faster speech synthesis compared to the models with similar quality.

Molecular Sets (MOSES): A Benchmarking Platform for Molecular Generation Models

Generative models are becoming a tool of choice for exploring the molecular space. These models learn on a large training dataset and produce novel molecular structures with similar properties. Generated structures can be utilized for virtual screening or training semi-supervised predictive models in the downstream tasks. While there are plenty of generative models, it is unclear how to compare and rank them. In this work, we introduce a benchmarking platform called Molecular Sets (MOSES) to standardize training and comparison of molecular generative models. MOSES provides a training and testing datasets, and a set of metrics to evaluate the quality and diversity of generated structures. We have implemented and compared several molecular generation models and suggest to use our results as reference points for further advancements in generative chemistry research. The platform and source code are available at https://github.com/molecularsets/moses.
