Disentangled Representation Learning for Non-Parallel Text Style Transfer
This paper tackles the problem of disentangling the latent variables of style and content in language models. We propose a simple yet effective approach, which incorporates auxiliary multi-task and adversarial objectives, for label prediction and bag-of-words prediction, respectively. We show, both qualitatively and quantitatively, that the style and content are indeed disentangled in the latent space. This disentangled latent representation learning method is applied to style transfer on non-parallel corpora. We achieve substantially better results in terms of transfer accuracy, content preservation and language fluency, in comparison to previous state-of-the-art approaches.

Improving Zero-shot Voice Style Transfer via Disentangled Representation Learning
Voice style transfer, also called voice conversion, seeks to modify one speaker's voice to generate speech as if it came from another (target) speaker. Previous works have made progress on voice conversion with parallel …
