Is adaptation of wavenet vocoder possible? #43

Thank you for your work. is it possible to train wavenet vocoder with multi-speaker data and adapt it to a target speaker with limited data? if yes, how can i do that?

kan-bayashi commented 6 years ago

Yes, it can be done. We often do it in the scenario of voice conversion. For example, the recipe of multi-speaker WaveNet vocoder is available in egs/arctic/si-close of egs/arctic/si-open, you can train WaveNet vocoder using 6 speakers' data via the recipe. And then you can re-train the WaveNet using the multi-speaker WaveNet as the initial model. This can be done with --resume option in train.py. https://github.com/kan-bayashi/PytorchWaveNetVocoder/blob/86688e34510a9e2382b148a6c0f865c0c85ce215/src/bin/train.py#L496-L505 Maybe it is not necessary to load the states of optimizer, only that of model is OK.
