Abstract

A method, computer program product, and computer system for text-to-speech synthesis is disclosed. Synthetic speech data for an input text may be generated. The synthetic speech data may be compared to recorded reference speech data corresponding to the input text. Based on, at least in part, the comparison of the synthetic speech data to the recorded reference speech data, at least one feature indicative of at least one difference between the synthetic speech data and the recorded reference speech data may be extracted. A speech gap filling model may be generated based on, at least in part, the at least one feature extracted. A speech output may be generated based on, at least in part, the speech gap filling model.
