Abstract: A method of sampling output audio samples includes, during a packet loss concealment event, obtaining a sequence of previous output audio samples. At each time step during the event, the method includes generating a probability distribution over possible output audio samples for the time step. Each sample includes a respective probability indicating a likelihood that the corresponding sample represents a portion of an utterance at the time step. The method also includes determining a temperature sampling value based on a function of a number of time steps that precedes the time step, and an initial, a minimum, and a maximum temperature sampling value. The method also includes applying the temperature sampling value to the probability distribution to adjust a probability of selecting possible samples and randomly selecting one of the possible samples based on the adjusted probability. The method also includes generating synthesized speech using the randomly selected sample.
