GRAFT: Grafted Reference Audio for Fine-grained Pronunciation in Zero-shot Text-to-Speech

View original on arxiv.org

Overview

arXiv:2607.02633v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present GRAFT, a per-word pronunciation conditioning mechanism for text-to-speech neural codec language modeling. Existing systems reach high intelligibility and naturalness but inherit the ambiguity of text and mispronounce rare proper nouns, loanwords and technical terms. Even phoneme-conditioned models offer no direct acoustic handle for per-word pronunciation. GRAFT controls the pronunciation of a chosen word from a short spoken sample of it
