  • Publication number: 20250245507
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for generating output audio examples using a generative neural network. One of the methods includes obtaining a training conditioning text input; processing a training generative input comprising the training conditioning text input using a feedforward generative neural network to generate a training audio output; processing the training audio output using each of a plurality of discriminators, wherein the plurality of discriminators comprises one or more conditional discriminators and one or more unconditional discriminators; determining a first combined prediction by combining the respective predictions of the plurality of discriminators; and determining an update to current values of a plurality of generative parameters of the feedforward generative neural network to increase a first error in the first combined prediction.

  • Patent number: 12288547
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for using a generative neural network to convert conditioning text inputs to audio outputs. The generative neural network includes an alignment neural network that is configured to receive a generative input that includes the conditioning text input and to process the generative input to generate an aligned conditioning sequence that comprises a respective feature representation at each of a plurality of first time steps and that is temporally aligned with the audio output.
