Researchers have evaluated eight voice cloning models to determine their effectiveness in preserving paralinguistic signals for speech tasks, particularly in clinical settings where labeled data is scarce. The study found that most models maintain the signal with only minor degradation. Furthermore, cloning English clinical speech into Japanese demonstrated that training on cloned data improved depression and anxiety detection in Japanese speakers compared to direct cross-lingual transfer, indicating voice cloning's potential for augmenting low-resource language clinical speech data.
