arXiv:2607.03985v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Advanced neural technologies in speech synthesis and voice conversion (VC) have introduced severe risks to personal privacy, necessitating robust Speaker Anonymization Systems (SAS). Existing SAS approaches modify voice characteristics in the hand-crafted feature space or speaker embedding space, often struggling to provide sufficient identity variance across generated voices. In this paper, we propose NouveauVoice, a novel pseudo-speaker generation framework based on a Hierarchical Deep Variational Autoencoder (NVAE). Integrated as a standalon
