# Fastspeech
Paddle fluid implementation of Fastspeech, a feed-forward network based on Transformer. The implementation is based on [FastSpeech: Fast, Robust and Controllable Text to Speech](https://arxiv.org/abs/1905.09263).
## Dataset
We experiment with the LJSpeech dataset. Download and unzip [LJSpeech](https://keithito.com/LJ-Speech-Dataset/).
```bash
wget https://data.keithito.com/data/speech/LJSpeech-1.1.tar.bz2
tar xjvf LJSpeech-1.1.tar.bz2
```
## Model Architecture
![FastSpeech model architecture](./images/model_architecture.png)
FastSpeech is a feed-forward structure based on Transformer, instead of using the encoder-attention-decoder based architecture. This model extract attention alignments from an encoder-decoder based teacher model for phoneme duration prediction, which is used by a length
regulator to expand the source phoneme sequence to match the length of the target
mel-spectrogram sequence for parallel mel-spectrogram generation. We use the TransformerTTS as teacher model.
The model consists of encoder, decoder and length regulator three parts.
## Project Structure
```text
├── config # yaml configuration files
├── synthesis.py # script to synthesize waveform from text
├── train.py # script for model training
```
## Train Transformer
FastSpeech model can train with ``train.py``.
```bash
python train.py \
--use_gpu=1 \
--use_data_parallel=0 \
--data_path=${DATAPATH} \
--transtts_path='../transformer_tts/checkpoint' \
--transformer_step=160000 \
--config_path='config/fastspeech.yaml' \
```
or you can run the script file directly.
```bash
sh train.sh
```
If you want to train on multiple GPUs, you must set ``--use_data_parallel=1``, and then start training as follow:
```bash
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1,2,3
python -m paddle.distributed.launch --selected_gpus=0,1,2,3 --log_dir ./mylog train.py \
--use_gpu=1 \
--use_data_parallel=1 \
--data_path=${DATAPATH} \
--transtts_path='../transformer_tts/checkpoint' \
--transformer_step=160000 \
--config_path='config/fastspeech.yaml' \
```
if you wish to resume from an exists model, please set ``--checkpoint_path`` and ``--fastspeech_step``
For more help on arguments:
``python train.py --help``.
## Synthesis
After training the FastSpeech, audio can be synthesized with ``synthesis.py``.
```bash
python synthesis.py \
--use_gpu=1 \
--alpha=1.0 \
--checkpoint_path='checkpoint/' \
--fastspeech_step=112000 \
```
or you can run the script file directly.
```bash
sh synthesis.sh
```

``python synthesis.py --help``.
