This repository hosts the code we used to prepare our interspeech'19 paper titled "Foreign Accent Conversion by Synthesizing Speech from Phonetic Posteriorgrams"
This project uses conda
to manage all the dependencies, you should install anaconda if you have not done so.
# Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/guanlongzhao/fac-via-ppg.git
cd $PROJECT_ROOT_DIR
# Install dependencies
conda env create -f environment.yml
# Activate the installed environment
conda activate ppg-speech
# Compile protocol buffer to get the data_utterance_pb2.py file
protoc -I=src/common --python_out=src/common src/common/data_utterance.proto
# Include src in your PYTHONPATH
export PYTHONPATH=$PROJECT_ROOT_DIR/src:$PYTHONPATH
If conda
complains that some packages are missing, it is very likely that you can find a similar version of that package on anaconda's archive.
If you are using pytorch >= 1.3
, you may need to remove the byte()
method call in src.common.utils.get_mask_from_lengths
.
cd test
# Remember to make this script executable
./run_coverage.sh
This only does a few sanity checks, don't worry if the test coverage looks low :)
Depending on your git configs, you may or may not need to recreate the symbolic links in test/data
.
Change default parameters in src/common/hparams.py:create_hparams()
.
The training and validation data should be specified in text files, see data/filelists
for examples.
cd src/script
python train_ppg2mel.py
The FP16
mode will not work, unfortunately :(
Change the default parameters in src/waveglow/config.json
. The training data should be specified in the same manner as the PPG-to-Mel model.
cd src/script
python train_waveglow.py
You should find a dir log
in all of your output dirs, that is the LOG_DIR
you should use below.
tensorboard --logdir=${LOG_DIR}
Use src/script/generate_synthesis.py
, you can find pre-trained models in the Links section.
generate_synthesis.py [-h] --ppg2mel_model PPG2MEL_MODEL
--waveglow_model WAVEGLOW_MODEL
--teacher_utterance_path TEACHER_UTTERANCE_PATH
--output_dir OUTPUT_DIR
