Query: FastSpeech 2: Fast and High-Quality End-to-End Text to Speech   Non-autoregressive text to speech (TTS) models such as FastSpeech can
synthesize speech significantly faster than previous autoregressive models with
comparable quality. The training of FastSpeech model relies on an
autoregressive teacher model for duration prediction (to provide more
information as input) and knowledge distillation (to simplify the data
distribution in output), which can ease the one-to-many mapping problem (i.e.,
multiple speech variations correspond to the same text) in TTS. However,
FastSpeech has several disadvantages: 1) the teacher-student distillation
pipeline is complicated and time-consuming, 2) the duration extracted from the
teacher model is not accurate enough, and the target mel-spectrograms distilled
from teacher model suffer from information loss due to data simplification,
both of which limit the voice quality. In this paper, we propose FastSpeech 2,
which addresses the issues in FastSpeech and better solves the one-to-many
mapping problem in TTS by 1) directly training the model with ground-truth
target instead of the simplified output from teacher, and 2) introducing more
variation information of speech (e.g., pitch, energy and more accurate
duration) as conditional inputs. Specifically, we extract duration, pitch and
energy from speech waveform and directly take them as conditional inputs in
training and use predicted values in inference. We further design FastSpeech
2s, which is the first attempt to directly generate speech waveform from text
in parallel, enjoying the benefit of fully end-to-end inference. Experimental
results show that 1) FastSpeech 2 achieves a 3x training speed-up over
FastSpeech, and FastSpeech 2s enjoys even faster inference speed; 2) FastSpeech
2 and 2s outperform FastSpeech in voice quality, and FastSpeech 2 can even
surpass autoregressive models. Audio samples are available at
