A Two-Step Approach for Data-Efficient French Pronunciation Learning
Recent studies have addressed intricate phonological phenomena in French, relying on either extensive linguistic knowledge or a significant amount of sentence-level pronunciation data. However, creating such resources is expensive and non-trivial. To this end, we propose a novel two-step approach that encompasses two pronunciation tasks: grapheme-to-phoneme and post-lexical processing. We then investigate the efficacy of the proposed approach with a notably limited amount of sentence-level pronunciation data. Our findings demonstrate that the proposed two-step approach effectively mitigates the lack of extensive labeled data, and serves as a feasible solution for addressing French phonological phenomena even under resource-constrained environments.

GIPFA: Generating IPA Pronunciation from Audio
Transcribing spoken audio samples into the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) has long been reserved for experts. In this study, we examine the use of an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model to automatically extract …
Neural TTS in French: Comparing Graphemic and Phonetic Inputs Using the SynPaFlex-Corpus and Tacotron2
The SynPaFlex-Corpus is a publicly available TTS-oriented dataset, which provides phonetic transcriptions automatically produced by the JTrans transcriber, with a Phoneme Error Rate (PER) of 6.1%. In this paper, we analy…
