FastThaiG2P system enables rapid Thai speech synthesis

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed FastThaiG2P, a novel system for rapid Thai grapheme-to-phoneme conversion. This system achieves sub-millisecond latency per utterance, making it highly efficient for text-to-speech pipelines. The approach utilizes a PyThaiNLP-tokenized dictionary and normalization rules, with a low out-of-vocabulary rate. FastThaiG2P has been integrated into a StyleTTS 2 model, enabling the vocalization of intelligible Thai speech at a 4x real-time factor. AI

IMPACT Accelerates development of Thai voice agents and text-to-speech applications with improved efficiency.
