Context-Adaptive Emotional Speech Synthesis via Feature Control in Multi-Turn Dialogue (ChinaMM 2026)

This paper proposes a context-adaptive framework for multi-turn emotional speech synthesis that leverages historical dialogue memory and a bimodal joint input of speech signals and text to dynamically predict and control acoustic features, thereby overcoming the limitations of traditional transcription-based methods to achieve natural and emotionally coherent responses.
