WaveRNN with CSMSC

This example contains code used to train a WaveRNN model with Chinese Standard Mandarin Speech Copus.

Dataset

Download and Extract

Download CSMSC from it's official website and extract it to ~/datasets. Then the dataset is in the directory ~/datasets/BZNSYP.

Get MFA Result and Extract

We use MFA results to cut silence at the edge of audio. You can download from here baker_alignment_tone.tar.gz, or train your MFA model reference to mfa example of our repo.

Get Started

Assume the path to the dataset is ~/datasets/BZNSYP. Assume the path to the MFA result of CSMSC is ./baker_alignment_tone. Run the command below to

  1. source path.
  2. preprocess the dataset.
  3. train the model.
  4. synthesize wavs.
    • synthesize waveform from metadata.jsonl.
./run.sh

You can choose a range of stages you want to run, or set stage equal to stop-stage to use only one stage, for example, running the following command will only preprocess the dataset.

./run.sh --stage 0 --stop-stage 0

Data Preprocessing

./local/preprocess.sh ${conf_path}

When it is done. A dump folder is created in the current directory. The structure of the dump folder is listed below.

dump
├── dev
│   ├── norm
│   └── raw
├── test
│   ├── norm
│   └── raw
└── train
    ├── norm
    ├── raw
    └── feats_stats.npy

The dataset is split into 3 parts, namely train, dev, and test, each of which contains a norm and raw subfolder. The raw folder contains the log magnitude of the mel spectrogram of each utterance, while the norm folder contains the normalized spectrogram. The statistics used to normalize the spectrogram are computed from the training set, which is located in dump/train/feats_stats.npy.

Also, there is a metadata.jsonl in each subfolder. It is a table-like file that contains id and paths to the spectrogram of each utterance.

Model Training

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=${gpus} ./local/train.sh ${conf_path} ${train_output_path}

./local/train.sh calls ${BIN_DIR}/train.py. Here's the complete help message.

usage: train.py [-h] [--config CONFIG] [--train-metadata TRAIN_METADATA]
                [--dev-metadata DEV_METADATA] [--output-dir OUTPUT_DIR]
                [--ngpu NGPU]

Train a WaveRNN model.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --config CONFIG       WaveRNN config file.
  --train-metadata TRAIN_METADATA
                        training data.
  --dev-metadata DEV_METADATA
                        dev data.
  --output-dir OUTPUT_DIR
                        output dir.
  --ngpu NGPU           if ngpu == 0, use cpu.
  1. --config is a config file in yaml format to overwrite the default config, which can be found at conf/default.yaml.
  2. --train-metadata and --dev-metadata should be the metadata file in the normalized subfolder of train and dev in the dump folder.
  3. --output-dir is the directory to save the results of the experiment. Checkpoints are saved in checkpoints/ inside this directory.
  4. --ngpu is the number of gpus to use, if ngpu == 0, use cpu.

Synthesizing

./local/synthesize.sh calls ${BIN_DIR}/synthesize.py, which can synthesize waveform from metadata.jsonl.

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=${gpus} ./local/synthesize.sh ${conf_path} ${train_output_path} ${ckpt_name}
usage: synthesize.py [-h] [--config CONFIG] [--checkpoint CHECKPOINT]
                     [--test-metadata TEST_METADATA] [--output-dir OUTPUT_DIR]
                     [--ngpu NGPU]

Synthesize with WaveRNN.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --config CONFIG       Vocoder config file.
  --checkpoint CHECKPOINT
                        snapshot to load.
  --test-metadata TEST_METADATA
                        dev data.
  --output-dir OUTPUT_DIR
                        output dir.
  --ngpu NGPU           if ngpu == 0, use cpu.
  1. --config wavernn config file. You should use the same config with which the model is trained.
  2. --checkpoint is the checkpoint to load. Pick one of the checkpoints from checkpoints inside the training output directory.
  3. --test-metadata is the metadata of the test dataset. Use the metadata.jsonl in the dev/norm subfolder from the processed directory.
  4. --output-dir is the directory to save the synthesized audio files.
  5. --ngpu is the number of gpus to use, if ngpu == 0, use cpu.
