UniVoice: A Unified Model for Speech and Singing Voice Generation

Junjie Zheng, Huixin Xue, Shihong Ren et al.

Text-to-speech (TTS) and singing voice synthesis (SVS) both aim to generate human vocal audio from symbolic inputs, but they impose different requirements on the generation process. Speech generation relies on flexible, language-driven prosody, whereas singing generation requires explicit melody control and accurate rhythmic alignment. This mismatch makes it challenging to train a single model that can generate both natural speech and controllable singing, since melody-related conditions should strongly constrain singing but should not restrict speech prosody. We present UniVoice, a unified speech and singing voice generation framework based on conditional flow matching. Instead of using a single undifferentiated conditioning representation, UniVoice factorizes the condition into content, melody, and timbre, which are encoded by modality-appropriate encoders and consumed by a shared Diffusion Transformer (DiT) backbone. For singing, the melody condition is represented by MIDI note sequences; for speech, it is replaced with a learned null melody token, allowing the model to infer prosody from linguistic and acoustic context. This design preserves explicit melody control for singing while avoiding the need to impose melody constraints on speech. We further analyze the null melody token as an approximation to melody marginalization in the conditional flow. Trained on 30k hours of speech and 35k hours of singing data, UniVoice achieves a speech PER of 5.26\%, comparable to dedicated TTS systems such as F5-TTS (5.21\%) and CosyVoice3 (5.30\%). On singing generation, UniVoice achieves a PER of 16.22\%, outperforming the unified baseline Vevo1.5 (24.72\%).

Democratizing Music Therapy: LLM-Based Automated EEG Analysis and Progress Tracking for Low-Cost Home Devices

Huixin Xue, Guangjun Xu, Shihong Ren et al.

Home-based music therapy devices require accessible and cost-effective solutions for users to understand and track their therapeutic progress. Traditional physiological signal analysis, particularly EEG interpretation, relies heavily on domain experts, creating barriers to scalability and home adoption. Meanwhile, few experts are capable of interpreting physiological signal data while also making targeted music recommendations. While large language models (LLMs) have shown promise in various domains, their application to automated physiological report generation for music therapy represents an unexplored task. We present a prototype system that leverages LLMs to bridge this gap -- transforming raw EEG and cardiovascular data into human-readable therapeutic reports and personalized music recommendations. Unlike prior work focusing on real-time physiological adaptation during listening, our approach emphasizes post-session analysis and interpretable reporting, enabling non-expert users to comprehend their psychophysiological states and track therapeutic outcomes over time. By integrating signal processing modules with LLM-based reasoning agents, the system provides a practical and low-cost solution for short-term progress monitoring in home music therapy contexts. This work demonstrates the feasibility of applying LLMs to a novel task -- democratizing access to physiology-driven music therapy through automated, interpretable reporting.
