Developed a native Mandarin Chinese Grapheme-to-Phoneme (G2P) pipeline for the Kokoro TTS system in the Blaizzy/mlx-audio repository, replacing the previous eSpeak-ng-based workflow. The new pipeline introduced robust word segmentation, pinyin conversion, tone sandhi, and Bopomofo mapping to enable accurate Mandarin text-to-speech synthesis. Integrated end-to-end support for downloading Chinese TTS models and G2P dictionaries from HuggingFace, streamlining model provisioning for downstream users. The work was implemented in Swift, leveraging machine learning and natural language processing techniques. Focus remained on feature delivery and stabilizing the new Mandarin G2P pipeline, with no major bugs addressed during this period.
