DiffAnon: Diffusion-based Prosody Control for Voice Anonymization

Ismail Rasim Ulgen, Zexin Cai, Nicholas Andrews, Philipp Koehn, Berrak Sisman ยท 2026

To preserve or not to preserve prosody is a central question in voice anonymization. Prosody conveys meaning and affect, yet is tightly coupled with speaker identity. Existing methods either discard pโ€ฆ

PSP: An Interpretable Per-Dimension Accent Benchmark for Indic Text-to-Speech

Venkata Pushpak Teja Menta ยท 2026

Standard text-to-speech (TTS) evaluation measures intelligibility (WER, CER) and overall naturalness (MOS, UTMOS) but does not quantify accent. A synthesiser may score well on all four yet sound non-nโ€ฆ
