# WaveFlow with LJSpeech
## Dataset
### Download the datasaet.
```bash
wget https://data.keithito.com/data/speech/LJSpeech-1.1.tar.bz2
```
### Extract the dataset.
```bash
tar xjvf LJSpeech-1.1.tar.bz2
```
### Preprocess the dataset.
Assume the path to save the preprocessed dataset is `ljspeech_waveflow`. Run the command below to preprocess the dataset.
```bash
python preprocess.py --input=LJSpeech-1.1/ --output=ljspeech_waveflow
```
## Train the model
The training script requires 4 command line arguments.
`--data` is the path of the training dataset, `--output` is the path of the output directory (we recommend to use a subdirectory in `runs` to manage different experiments.)
`--device` should be "cpu" or "gpu", `--nprocs` is the number of processes to train the model in parallel.
```bash
python train.py --data=ljspeech_waveflow/ --output=runs/test --device="gpu" --nprocs=1
```
If you want distributed training, set a larger `--nprocs` (e.g. 4). Note that distributed training with cpu is not supported yet.
## Synthesize
Synthesize waveform. We assume the `--input` is a directory containing several mel spectrograms(log magnitude) in `.npy` format. The output would be saved in `--output` directory, containing several `.wav` files, each with the same name as the mel spectrogram does.
`--checkpoint_path` should be the path of the parameter file (`.pdparams`) to load. Note that the extention name `.pdparmas` is not included here.
`--device` specifies to device to run synthesis on.
```bash
python synthesize.py --input=mels/ --output=wavs/ --checkpoint_path='step-2000000' --device="gpu" --verbose
```
## Pretrained Model
Pretrained Model with residual channel equals 128 can be downloaded here. [waveflow_ljspeech_ckpt_0.3.zip](https://paddlespeech.bj.bcebos.com/Parakeet/waveflow_ljspeech_ckpt_0.3.zip).
