 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).
 
 We implement Fastspeech model in paddle fluid with dynamic graph, which is convenient for flexible network architectures.
+
+## Installation
+
+### Install paddlepaddle
+This implementation requires the latest develop version of paddlepaddle. You can either download the compiled package or build paddle from source.
+1. Install the compiled package, via pip, conda or docker. See [**Installation Mannuals**](https://www.paddlepaddle.org.cn/documentation/docs/en/beginners_guide/install/index_en.html) for more details.
+
+2. Build paddlepaddle from source. See [**Compile From Source Code**](https://www.paddlepaddle.org.cn/documentation/docs/en/beginners_guide/install/compile/fromsource_en.html) for more details. Note that if you want to enable data parallel training for multiple GPUs, you should set `-DWITH_DISTRIBUTE=ON` with cmake.
+
+### Install parakeet
+You can choose to install via pypi or clone the repository and install manually.
+
+1. Install via pypi.
+   ```bash
+   pip install parakeet
+   ```
+
+2. Install manually.
+   ```bash
+   git clone <url>
+   cd Parakeet/
+   pip install -e .
+
+### Download cmudict for nltk
+You also need to download cmudict for nltk, because convert text into phonemes with `cmudict`.
+
+```python
+import nltk
+nltk.download("punkt")
+nltk.download("cmudict")
+```
+
+If you have completed all the above installations, but still report an error at runtime：
+
+``` OSError: sndfile library not found ```
+
+You need to install ```libsndfile``` using your distribution’s package manager. e.g. install via:
+
+``` sudo apt-get install libsndfile1 ```
+
+## 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
+```
+
+For more help on arguments: 
+``python synthesis.py --help``.
