Tacotron 2 with Guided Attention trained on Thorsten (Ger)

This repository provides a pretrained Tacotron2 trained with Guided Attention on Thorsten dataset (Ger). For a detail of the model, we encourage you to read more about TensorFlowTTS.

Install TensorFlowTTS

First of all, please install TensorFlowTTS with the following command:

pip install TensorFlowTTS

Converting your Text to Mel Spectrogram

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

processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("tensorspeech/tts-tacotron2-thorsten-ger")
tacotron2 = TFAutoModel.from_pretrained("tensorspeech/tts-tacotron2-thorsten-ger")

text = "Möchtest du das meiner Frau erklären? Nein? Ich auch nicht."

input_ids = processor.text_to_sequence(text)

decoder_output, mel_outputs, stop_token_prediction, alignment_history = tacotron2.inference(
    input_ids=tf.expand_dims(tf.convert_to_tensor(input_ids, dtype=tf.int32), 0),
    input_lengths=tf.convert_to_tensor([len(input_ids)], tf.int32),
    speaker_ids=tf.convert_to_tensor([0], dtype=tf.int32),
)
