Text-to-Speech (TTS) with Tacotron2 trained on LJSpeech
This repository provides all the necessary tools for Text-to-Speech (TTS) with SpeechBrain using a Tacotron2 pretrained on ALLFA Public.
The pre-trained model takes in input a short text and produces a spectrogram in output. One can get the final waveform by applying a vocoder (e.g., HiFIGAN) on top of the generated spectrogram.
Install SpeechBrain
pip install speechbrain
Please notice that we encourage you to read the tutorials and learn more about SpeechBrain.
Perform Text-to-Speech (TTS)
import torchaudio
from speechbrain.pretrained import Tacotron2
from speechbrain.pretrained import HIFIGAN
# Intialize TTS (tacotron2) and Vocoder (HiFIGAN)
tacotron2 = Tacotron2.from_hparams(source="aioxlabs/tacotron-swahili", savedir="tmpdir_tts")
hifi_gan = HIFIGAN.from_hparams(source="aioxlabs/hifigan-swahili", savedir="tmpdir_vocoder")
# Running the TTS
mel_output, mel_length, alignment = tacotron2.encode_text("raisi wa jumhuri ya tanzania")
# Running Vocoder (spectrogram-to-waveform)
waveforms = hifi_gan.decode_batch(mel_output)
# Save the waverform
torchaudio.save('example_TTS.wav',waveforms.squeeze(1), 16000)
If you want to generate multiple sentences in one-shot, you can do in this way:
from speechbrain.pretrained import Tacotron2
tacotron2 = Tacotron2.from_hparams(source="aioxlabs/tacotron-swahili", savedir="tmpdir")
items = [
"raisi wa jumhuri ya tanzania",
"soma zaidi"
]
mel_outputs, mel_lengths, alignments = tacotron2.encode_batch(items)
Inference on GPU
To perform inference on the GPU, add run_opts={"device":"cuda"}
when calling the from_hparams
method.
Training
The model was trained with SpeechBrain. To train it from scratch follow these steps:
- Clone SpeechBrain:
git clone https://github.com/speechbrain/speechbrain/
- Install it:
cd speechbrain
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .
- Run Training:
cd recipes/LJSpeech/TTS/tacotron2/
python train.py --device=cuda:0 --max_grad_norm=1.0 --data_folder=/your_folder/LJSpeech-1.1 hparams/train.yaml
You can find our training results (models, logs, etc) here.
Limitations
The SpeechBrain team does not provide any warranty on the performance achieved by this model when used on other datasets.
