Real-Time State-of-the-art Speech Synthesis for Tensorflow 2

🤪 TensorFlowTTS provides real-time state-of-the-art speech synthesis architectures such as Tacotron-2, Melgan, Multiband-Melgan, FastSpeech, FastSpeech2 based-on TensorFlow 2. With Tensorflow 2, we can speed-up training/inference progress, optimizer further by using fake-quantize aware and pruning, make TTS models can be run faster than real-time and be able to deploy on mobile devices or embedded systems.

Requirements

This repository is tested on Ubuntu 18.04 with:

Different Tensorflow version should be working but not tested yet. This repo will try to work with latest stable tensorflow version. We recommend you install tensorflow 2.3.0 to training in case you want to use MultiGPU.

Installation

With pip

$ pip install TensorFlowTTS

From source

Examples are included in the repository but are not shipped with the framework. Therefore, in order to run the latest verion of examples, you need install from source following bellow.

$ git clone https://github.com/TensorSpeech/TensorFlowTTS.git
$ cd TensorFlowTTS
$ pip install .

If you want upgrade the repository and its dependencies:

$ git pull
$ pip install --upgrade .

Tutorial End-to-End

Prepare Dataset

Prepare a dataset in the following format:

|- [NAME_DATASET]/
|   |- metadata.csv
|   |- wav/
|       |- file1.wav
|       |- ...

where metadata.csv has the following format: id|transcription. This is a ljspeech-like format, you can ignore preprocessing steps if you have other format dataset.

Note that NAME_DATASET should be [ljspeech/kss/baker/libritts] for example.

Preprocessing

The preprocessing has two steps:

  1. Preprocess audio features
    • Convert characters to IDs
    • Compute mel spectrograms
    • Normalize mel spectrograms to [-1, 1] range
    • Split dataset into train and validation
    • Compute mean and standard deviation of multiple features from the training split
  2. Standardize mel spectrogram based on computed statistics

To reproduce the steps above:

tensorflow-tts-preprocess --rootdir ./[ljspeech/kss/baker/libritts] --outdir ./dump_[ljspeech/kss/baker/libritts] --config preprocess/[ljspeech/kss/baker]_preprocess.yaml --dataset [ljspeech/kss/baker/libritts]
tensorflow-tts-normalize --rootdir ./dump_[ljspeech/kss/baker/libritts] --outdir ./dump_[ljspeech/kss/baker/libritts] --config preprocess/[ljspeech/kss/baker/libritts]_preprocess.yaml --dataset [ljspeech/kss/baker/libritts]

Right now we only support ljspeech, kss, baker and libritts for dataset argument. In the future, we intend to support more datasets.

Note: To runing libritts preprocessing, please first read the instruction in examples/fastspeech2_libritts. We need reformat it first before run preprocessing.

After preprocessing, the structure of the project folder should be:

|- [NAME_DATASET]/
|   |- metadata.csv
|   |- wav/
|       |- file1.wav
|       |- ...
|- dump_[ljspeech/kss/baker/libritts]/
|   |- train/
|       |- ids/

|           |- LJ001-0001-raw-f0.npy
|           |- ...
|       |- raw-energies/
|           |- LJ001-0001-raw-energy.npy
|           |- ...

|   |- stats_energy.npy
|   |- train_utt_ids.npy
|   |- valid_utt_ids.npy
|- examples/
|   |- melgan/
|   |- fastspeech/
|   |- tacotron2/
|   ...
  • stats.npy contains the mean and std from the training split mel spectrograms
  • stats_energy.npy contains the mean and std of energy values from the training split
  • stats_f0.npy contains the mean and std of F0 values in the training split
  • train_utt_ids.npy / valid_utt_ids.npy contains training and validation utterances IDs respectively

We use suffix (ids, raw-feats, raw-energy, raw-f0, norm-feats and wave) for each type of input.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

  • This preprocessing step is based on ESPnet so you can combine all models here with other models from ESPnet repository.
  • Regardless how your dataset is formatted, the final structure of dump folder SHOULD follow above structure to be able use the training script or you can modify by yourself 😄.

Training models

To know how to training model from scratch or fine-tune with other datasets/languages, pls see detail at example directory.

Abstract Class Explaination

Abstract DataLoader Tensorflow-based dataset

A detail implementation of abstract dataset class from tensorflow_tts/dataset/abstract_dataset. There are some functions you need overide and understand:

  1. get_args: This function return argumentation for generator class, normally is utt_ids.
  2. generator: This funtion have an inputs from get_args function and return a inputs for models. Note that we return dictionary for all generator function with they keys exactly match with the parameter of the model because base_trainer will use model(**batch) to do forward step.
  3. get_output_dtypes: This function need return dtypes for each element from generator function.
  4. get_len_dataset: Return len of datasets, normaly is len(utt_ids).

IMPORTANT NOTES:

  • A pipeline of creating dataset should be: cache -> shuffle -> map_fn -> get_batch -> prefetch.
  • If you do shuffle before cache, the dataset won't shuffle when it re-iterate over datasets.
  • You should apply map_fn to make each elements return from generator function have a same length before get batch and feed it into a model.

Some examples to use this abstract_dataset are tacotron_dataset.py, fastspeech_dataset.py, melgan_dataset.py, fastspeech2_dataset.py

Abstract Trainer Class

A detail implementation of base_trainer from tensorflow_tts/trainer/base_trainer.py. It include Seq2SeqBasedTrainer and GanBasedTrainer inherit from BasedTrainer. All trainer support both single/multi GPU. There a some functions you MUST overide when implement new_trainer:

  • compile: This function aim to define a models, and losses.
  • generate_and_save_intermediate_result: This function will save intermediate result such as: plot alignment, save audio generated, plot mel-spectrogram ...
  • compute_per_example_losses: This function will compute per_example_loss for model, note that all element of the loss MUST has shape [batch_size].

All models on this repo are trained based-on GanBasedTrainer (see train_melgan.py, train_melgan_stft.py, train_multiband_melgan.py) and Seq2SeqBasedTrainer (see train_tacotron2.py, train_fastspeech.py).

End-to-End Examples

You can know how to inference each model at notebooks or see a colab (for English), colab (for Korean). Here is an example code for end2end inference with fastspeech and melgan.

import numpy as np
import soundfile as sf
import yaml

import tensorflow as tf

from tensorflow_tts.inference import AutoConfig
from tensorflow_tts.inference import TFAutoModel
from tensorflow_tts.inference import AutoProcessor

# initialize fastspeech model.
fs_config = AutoConfig.from_pretrained('/examples/fastspeech/conf/fastspeech.v1.yaml')
fastspeech = TFAutoModel.from_pretrained(
    config=fs_config,
    pretrained_path="./examples/fastspeech/pretrained/model-195000.h5"
)


# initialize melgan model
melgan_config = AutoConfig.from_pretrained('./examples/melgan/conf/melgan.v1.yaml')
melgan = TFAutoModel.from_pretrained(
    config=melgan_config,
    pretrained_path="./examples/melgan/checkpoint/generator-1500000.h5"
)


# inference
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained(pretrained_path="./test/files/ljspeech_mapper.json")

ids = processor.text_to_sequence("Recent research at Harvard has shown meditating for as little as 8 weeks, can actually increase the grey matter in the parts of the brain responsible for emotional regulation, and learning.")
ids = tf.expand_dims(ids, 0)
# fastspeech inference

masked_mel_before, masked_mel_after, duration_outputs = fastspeech.inference(
    ids,
    speaker_ids=tf.zeros(shape=[tf.shape(ids)[0]]),
    speed_ratios=tf.constant([1.0], dtype=tf.float32)
)

# melgan inference
audio_before = melgan.inference(masked_mel_before)[0, :, 0]
audio_after = melgan.inference(masked_mel_after)[0, :, 0]

# save to file
sf.write('./audio_before.wav', audio_before, 22050, "PCM_16")
sf.write('./audio_after.wav', audio_after, 22050, "PCM_16")
