Exploring efficient neural architectures for linguistic-acoustic mapping in text-to-speech [PDF]
, 2019 Conversion from text to speech relies on the accurate mapping from linguistic to acoustic symbol sequences, for which current practice employs recurrent statistical models such as recurrent neural networks. Despite the good performance of such models (in
