Tacotron-2
DeepMind's Tacotron-2 Tensorflow implementation
Tacotron-2 is a TensorFlow implementation of DeepMind’s Tacotron-2 end-to-end text-to-speech architecture, which predicts mel spectrograms from raw text and then feeds them to a neural vocoder such as WaveNet. It reproduces the original paper’s hyperparameters exactly via paper_hparams.py, while also offering a tuned hparams.py with extra improvements that often yield better audio quality in practice. The repository is structured as a full training pipeline: dataset preparation, preprocessing into spectrograms, Tacotron training, WaveNet (or Griffin-Lim) vocoder training, and final waveform synthesis. ...
