Abstract: A method for residual adapters for few-shot text-to-speech speaker adaptation includes obtaining a text-to-speech (TTS) model configured to convert text into representations of synthetic speech, the TTS model pre-trained on an initial training data set. The method further includes augmenting the TTS model with a stack of residual adapters. The method includes receiving an adaption training data set including one or more spoken utterances spoken by a target speaker, each spoken utterance in the adaptation training data set paired with corresponding input text associated with a transcription of the spoken utterance. The method also includes adapting, using the adaption training data set, the TTS model augmented with the stack of residual adapters to learn how to synthesize speech in a voice of the target speaker by optimizing the stack of residual adapters while parameters of the TTS model are frozen.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may report capabilities pertaining to UE feedback processing, such as a number of simultaneous feedback reports that can be processed and reported by the UE for various types of feedback. For example, UE feedback processing capability may depend on channel state information (CSI) processing units (CPUs) available to the UE for feedback processing operations (e. g., for performing channel measurements, processing feedback, generating a feedback report, etc.). A UE may report feedback processing capability separately for periodic feedback reporting and for aperiodic feedback reporting, for different types of feedback reporting (e. g., for CSI reporting, for beam management reporting, etc.), etc. As such, a UE may more efficiently report capabilities pertaining to UE feedback processing, and a base station may more efficiently configure UE feedback reporting according to UE feedback processing capability.

Additionally or alternatively, the UE may determine to fallback from operating using the ML model to operating in a second mode based on a fallback trigger. In some examples, to restore operating using a downloaded ML model, the UE may download an updated ML model or receive iterative updates to a previously downloaded ML model.
