What is ChatTTS?
ChatTTS (Chat Text-to-Speech) is a technology that allows computer programs to convert text into spoken language, i.e. voice output. This technology is widely used in various scenarios, such as voice assistants, e-book readers, automatic telephone systems, assistive technology, etc. Users enter text, and the ChatTTS system converts the text into speech, which is then played through the speaker or saved as an audio file. This conversion usually involves speech synthesis technology, including natural language processing and speech synthesis engines, so that the generated speech sounds as natural and smooth as possible.

Application Features:

• Conversational optimization: ChatTTS focuses on conversational tasks to ensure the naturalness and fluency of synthesized speech.
• Fine-grained control: Enables precise manipulation of sound elements such as laughter, pauses, and interjections.
• Multi-speaker support: Ability to simulate speakers of different genders and styles to increase voice diversity.
• Efficient interface: Provides a simple and easy-to-use Python API for quick integration into existing projects.
• Multi-language support: supports Chinese and English, suitable for multi-language environments and meets the needs of users of different languages.
• Large-scale data training: About 100,000 hours of Chinese and English data were used for training, making the speech synthesis high-quality and natural-sounding.
• Open Source: The project is open source, encouraging further research and innovation, and providing pre-trained models.
• Ease of use: Only text information is needed as input to generate the corresponding voice file, which is convenient for users who have speech synthesis needs4.
• Dialogue task compatibility: It is suitable for handling dialogue tasks that are usually assigned to large language models (LLMs), providing a more natural and smooth interactive experience.
• Control and security: We work on improving the controllability of the model, adding watermarks, and integrating it with LLMs to ensure the security and reliability of the model.

I'm deploying this recently. I'll share the deployment process and experience in a few days~

It would be nice if it could read in multiple formats. For example, PDF, MOBI, EPUB, etc. These are the formats of e-books I often read.

Then I guess we need to add an extra layer of processing. What are the formats of MOBI and EPUB?

Although artificial intelligence can recognize text in images, it would be very convenient if it could be able to read these e-book formats aloud.

Common e-book formats.

Yes, yes, I am waiting for this technology.

Is there any information for voice conversion?

It is not a document, but an e-book that I read. For general books that are not too difficult to understand, you can just listen to them. Only read the ones that require thinking.
