New framework ProPS synthesizes speaker embeddings from text prompts

Researchers have developed ProPS, a novel framework for synthesizing speaker embeddings conditioned on natural language prompts. This system converts textual descriptions of speaker profiles into sentence embeddings, which then guide a mixture density network to predict Gaussian mixture models in the x-vector space. ProPS has demonstrated its ability to generate distributions of speaker embeddings that accurately reflect requested attributes such as age, gender, accent, and prosody, making it valuable for controllable speech generation systems like Text-To-Speech and Voice Conversion.
