ESPnet is an end-to-end speech processing toolkit, mainly focuses on end-to-end speech recognition and end-to-end text-to-speech. ESPnet uses chainer and pytorch as a main deep learning engine, and also follows Kaldi style data processing, feature extraction/format, and recipes to provide a complete setup for speech recognition and other speech processing experiments.

cd egs/ljspeech/tts1 && . ./path.sh
# we use upper-case char sequence for the default model.
echo "THIS IS A DEMONSTRATION OF TEXT TO SPEECH." > example.txt
# let's synthesize speech!
synth_wav.sh example.txt

# also you can use multiple sentences
echo "THIS IS A DEMONSTRATION OF TEXT TO SPEECH." > example_multi.txt
echo "TEXT TO SPEECH IS A TECHQNIQUE TO CONVERT TEXT INTO SPEECH." >> example_multi.txt
synth_wav.sh example_multi.txt

You can change the pretrained model as follows:

synth_wav.sh --models ljspeech.fastspeech.v1 example.txt

Waveform synthesis is performed with Griffin-Lim algorithm and neural vocoders (WaveNet and ParallelWaveGAN). You can change the pretrained vocoder model as follows:

synth_wav.sh --vocoder_models ljspeech.wavenet.mol.v1 example.txt

WaveNet vocoder provides very high quality speech but it takes time to generate.

Cascade ASR+TTS as one of the baseline systems of VCC2020

CTC Segmentation demo

ESPnet1

CTC segmentation determines utterance segments within audio files. Aligned utterance segments constitute the labels of speech datasets.

As demo, we align start and end of utterances within the audio file ctc_align_test.wav, using the example script utils/ctc_align_wav.sh. For preparation, set up a data directory:

cd egs/tedlium2/align1/
# data directory
align_dir=data/demo
mkdir -p ${align_dir}
# wav file
base=ctc_align_test
wav=../../../test_utils/${base}.wav
# recipe files
echo "batchsize: 0" > ${align_dir}/align.yaml

cat << EOF > ${align_dir}/utt_text
${base} THE SALE OF THE HOTELS
${base} IS PART OF HOLIDAY'S STRATEGY
${base} TO SELL OFF ASSETS
${base} AND CONCENTRATE
${base} ON PROPERTY MANAGEMENT
EOF

Here, utt_text is the file containing the list of utterances. Choose a pre-trained ASR model that includes a CTC layer to find utterance segments:

# pre-trained ASR model
model=wsj.transformer_small.v1
mkdir ./conf && cp ../../wsj/asr1/conf/no_preprocess.yaml ./conf

../../../utils/asr_align_wav.sh \
    --models ${model} \
    --align_dir ${align_dir} \
    --align_config ${align_dir}/align.yaml \
    ${wav} ${align_dir}/utt_text

Segments are written to aligned_segments as a list of file/utterance name, utterance start and end times in seconds and a confidence score. The confidence score is a probability in log space that indicates how good the utterance was aligned. If needed, remove bad utterances:

min_confidence_score=-5
awk -v ms=${min_confidence_score} '{ if ($5 > ms) {print} }' ${align_dir}/aligned_segments

The demo script utils/ctc_align_wav.sh uses an already pretrained ASR model (see list above for more models). It is recommended to use models with RNN-based encoders (such as BLSTMP) for aligning large audio files; rather than using Transformer models that have a high memory consumption on longer audio data. The sample rate of the audio must be consistent with that of the data used in training; adjust with sox if needed. A full example recipe is in egs/tedlium2/align1/.

ESPnet2

CTC segmentation determines utterance segments within audio files. Aligned utterance segments constitute the labels of speech datasets.

As demo, we align start and end of utterances within the audio file ctc_align_test.wav. This can be done either directly from the Python command line or using the script espnet2/bin/asr_align.py.

From the Python command line interface:

# load a model with character tokens
from espnet_model_zoo.downloader import ModelDownloader
d = ModelDownloader(cachedir="./modelcache")
wsjmodel = d.download_and_unpack("kamo-naoyuki/wsj")
# load the example file included in the ESPnet repository
import soundfile
speech, rate = soundfile.read("./test_utils/ctc_align_test.wav")
# CTC segmentation
from espnet2.bin.asr_align import CTCSegmentation
aligner = CTCSegmentation( **wsjmodel , fs=rate )
text = """
utt1 THE SALE OF THE HOTELS
utt2 IS PART OF HOLIDAY'S STRATEGY
utt3 TO SELL OFF ASSETS
utt4 AND CONCENTRATE ON PROPERTY MANAGEMENT
"""
segments = aligner(speech, text)
print(segments)
# utt1 utt 0.26 1.73 -0.0154 THE SALE OF THE HOTELS
# utt2 utt 1.73 3.19 -0.7674 IS PART OF HOLIDAY'S STRATEGY
# utt3 utt 3.19 4.20 -0.7433 TO SELL OFF ASSETS
# utt4 utt 4.20 6.10 -0.4899 AND CONCENTRATE ON PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

Aligning also works with fragments of the text. For this, set the gratis_blank option that allows skipping unrelated audio sections without penalty. It's also possible to omit the utterance names at the beginning of each line, by setting kaldi_style_text to False.

aligner.set_config( gratis_blank=True, kaldi_style_text=False )
text = ["SALE OF THE HOTELS", "PROPERTY MANAGEMENT"]
segments = aligner(speech, text)
print(segments)
# utt_0000 utt 0.37 1.72 -2.0651 SALE OF THE HOTELS
# utt_0001 utt 4.70 6.10 -5.0566 PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

The script espnet2/bin/asr_align.py uses a similar interface. To align utterances:

# ASR model and config files from pretrained model (e.g. from cachedir):
asr_config=<path-to-model>/config.yaml
asr_model=<path-to-model>/valid.*best.pth
# prepare the text file
wav="test_utils/ctc_align_test.wav"
text="test_utils/ctc_align_text.txt"
cat << EOF > ${text}
utt1 THE SALE OF THE HOTELS
utt2 IS PART OF HOLIDAY'S STRATEGY
utt3 TO SELL OFF ASSETS
utt4 AND CONCENTRATE
utt5 ON PROPERTY MANAGEMENT
EOF
# obtain alignments:
python espnet2/bin/asr_align.py --asr_train_config ${asr_config} --asr_model_file ${asr_model} --audio ${wav} --text ${text}
# utt1 ctc_align_test 0.26 1.73 -0.0154 THE SALE OF THE HOTELS
# utt2 ctc_align_test 1.73 3.19 -0.7674 IS PART OF HOLIDAY'S STRATEGY
# utt3 ctc_align_test 3.19 4.20 -0.7433 TO SELL OFF ASSETS
# utt4 ctc_align_test 4.20 4.97 -0.6017 AND CONCENTRATE
# utt5 ctc_align_test 4.97 6.10 -0.3477 ON PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

The output of the script can be redirected to a segments file by adding the argument --output segments. Each line contains file/utterance name, utterance start and end times in seconds and a confidence score; optionally also the utterance text. The confidence score is a probability in log space that indicates how good the utterance was aligned. If needed, remove bad utterances:

min_confidence_score=-7
# here, we assume that the output was written to the file `segments`
awk -v ms=${min_confidence_score} '{ if ($5 > ms) {print} }' segments

See the module documentation for more information. It is recommended to use models with RNN-based encoders (such as BLSTMP) for aligning large audio files; rather than using Transformer models that have a high memory consumption on longer audio data. The sample rate of the audio must be consistent with that of the data used in training; adjust with sox if needed.
