Data Processing for Optimizing Naturalness of Vietnamese Text-to-speech System
Abstract End-to-end text-to-speech (TTS) systems has proved its great success in the presence of a large amount of high-quality training data recorded in anechoic room with high-quality microphone. Another approach is to use available source of found data like radio broadcast news. We aim to optimize the naturalness of TTS system on the found data using a novel data processing method. The data processing method includes 1) utterance selection and 2) prosodic punctuation insertion to prepare training data which can optimize the naturalness of TTS systems. We showed that using the processing data method, an end-to-end TTS achieved a mean opinion score (MOS) of 4.1 compared to 4.3 of natural speech. We showed that the punctuation insertion contributed the most to the result. To facilitate the research and development of TTS systems, we distributed the processed data of one speaker at https://forms.gle/6Hk5YkqgDxAaC2BU6.
