### How to use
See example of inference pipeline for Russian TTS (G2P + FastPitch + HifiGAN) in this [notebook](https://github.com/bene-ges/nemo_compatible/blob/main/notebooks/Russian_TTS_with_IPA_G2P_FastPitch_and_HifiGAN.ipynb).
Or use this [bash-script](https://github.com/bene-ges/nemo_compatible/blob/main/scripts/tts/ru_ipa_fastpitch_hifigan/test.sh).
### Input
This model is indended to be used in a G2P + FastPitch + HifiGAN pipeline (see above).
If run independently, it expects text converted to IPA-like transcriptions. See this [g2p model](https://huggingface.co/bene-ges/ru_g2p_ipa_bert_large) for conversion of plain Russian text to phonemes.
If you feed plain text directly, it will work, but quality will be low.
### Output
This model generates mel spectrograms.
## Training
The NeMo toolkit [1] was used for training the model for 1000+ epochs.
Full training script is [here](https://github.com/bene-ges/nemo_compatible/blob/main/scripts/tts/ru_ipa_fastpitch_hifigan/train.sh)
### Datasets
This model is trained on [RUSLAN](https://ruslan-corpus.github.io/) [2] corpus (single speaker, male voice) sampled at 22050Hz.
