A TTS approach focused on generating not only correct words but also appropriate style, tone, and emotional effect.
False Trigger Rate
A critical quality metric expressing how often keyword systems activate incorrectly.
Few-Shot Audio Classification
A low-data learning approach aimed at recognizing new audio events or classes from very few examples.
