MelNet & other dataset than ljspeech #64

Closed C00reNUT closed 4 years ago

C00reNUT commented 4 years ago

Hello, thank you for this exellent and very intuitive implementation!

I am not familiar with TTS research, so my questions can probably be quite naive. :)

1) Do you also plan to implement MelNet? The audio results provided in the paper overview are quite impressive.
2) Is there any chance that in the long run you will train models with different dataset, other than ljspeech? This implementation is great, but the commercial applications (Google, Microsoft) have models trained with much better datasets.

P.S: As I said I am not familiar with TTS research, but there is plenty of exellent readers on librivox - all of them being in public domain. I have done plenty of audio-text matching tasks with aeneas library in the past. Would it be enough to emulate the structure of ljspeech dataset? With the quantity and lenght of samples in librivox I could probably create a dataset with 30-50 single-speaker hours of samples...

Once again thanks for your great work!

Hi,

I will read the paper and consider to implement it later.

Actually, in the future i want to try other datasets, but now i just only focus on LJSpeech for fast experiments :D.

yeah, it's enough :D, maybe you can refer libriSpeech dataset for TTS here (http://www.openslr.org/60/)

Cool, thank you!
