Usage

Demo

The pretrained model is available here [265.12 MB]

Download the pretrained model and place it inside savedmodels directory. To visulaize the results, we run demo.py.

python3 demo.py

Default arguments

• dataset: LRW (10 Samples)
• root: Datasets/SAMPLE_LRW
• model_path: savedmodels/lip2speech_final.pth
• encoding: voice

Evaluate

Evaluates the ESTOI score for the given Lip2Speech model. (Higer is better)

python3 evaluate.py --dataset LRW --root Datasets/LRW --model_path savedmodels/lip2speech_final.pth

Train

To train the model, we run train.py

python3 train.py --dataset LRW --root Datasets/LRW --finetune_model_path savedmodels/lip2speech_final.pth

• finetune_model_path - Use as base model to finetune to dataset. (optional)
