## Model Description |
|
|
|
<!-- Provide a longer summary of what this model is. --> |
|
This model is an end-to-end deep-learning-based Kinyarwanda Text-to-Speech (TTS). The model was trained using the Coqui's TTS library, and the YourTTS[1] architecture. |
|
|

|
# Usage |
|
|
|
<!-- Address questions around how the model is intended to be used, including the foreseeable users of the model and those affected by the model. --> |
|
Install the Coqui's TTS library: |
|
``` |
|
pip install TTS |
|
``` |
|
Download the files from this repo, then run: |
|
|
|
``` |
|
tts --text "text" --model_path model.pth --config_path config.json --speakers_file_path speakers.pth --speaker_wav conditioning_audio.wav --out_path out.wav |
|
``` |
|
Where the conditioning audio is a wav file(s) to condition a multi-speaker TTS model with a Speaker Encoder, you can give multiple file paths. The d_vectors is computed as their average. |
