Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for multilingual prosody generation. In some implementations, data indicating a set of linguistic features corresponding to a text is obtained. Data indicating the linguistic features and data indicating the language of the text are provided as input to a neural network that has been trained to provide output indicating prosody information for multiple languages. The neural network can be a neural network having been trained using speech in multiple languages. Output indicating prosody information for the linguistic features is received from the neural network. Audio data representing the text is generated using the output of the neural network.
