Getting Started

The following section lists the requirements in order to start training the Tacotron 2 and WaveGlow models.

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/ide8/tacotron2  
cd tacotron2
PROJDIR=$(pwd)
export PYTHONPATH=$PROJDIR:$PYTHONPATH

Requirements

This repository contains Dockerfile which extends the PyTorch NGC container and encapsulates some dependencies. Aside from these dependencies, ensure you have the following components:

Setup

Build an image from Docker file:

docker build --tag taco .

Run docker container:

docker run --shm-size=8G --runtime=nvidia -v /absolute/path/to/your/code:/app -v /absolute/path/to/your/training_data:/mnt/train -v /absolute/path/to/your/logs:/mnt/logs -v /absolute/path/to/your/raw-data:/mnt/raw-data -v /absolute/path/to/your/pretrained-checkpoint:/mnt/pretrained -detach taco sleep inf

Check container id:

docker ps

Select container id of image with tag taco and log into container with:

docker exec -it container_id bash

Code structure description

Folders tacotron2 and waveglow have scripts for Tacotron 2, WaveGlow models and consist of:

  • <model_name>/model.py - model architecture
  • <model_name>/data_function.py - data loading functions
  • <model_name>/loss_function.py - loss function

Folder common contains common layers for both models (common/layers.py), utils (common/utils.py) and audio processing (common/audio_processing.py and common/stft.py).

Folder router is used by training script to select an appropriate model

In the root directory:

  • train.py - script for model training
  • preprocess.py - performs audio processing and creates training and validation datasets
  • inference.ipynb - notebook for running inference

Folder configs contains __init__.py with all parameters needed for training and data processing. Folder configs/experiments consists of all the experiments. waveglow.py and tacotron2.py are provided as examples for WaveGlow and Tacotron 2. On training or data processing start, parameters are copied from your experiment (in our case - from waveglow.py or from tacotron2.py) to __init__.py, from which they are used by the system.

Data preprocessing

Preparing for data preprocessing

  1. For each speaker you have to have a folder named with speaker name, containing wavs folder and metadata.csv file with the next line format: file_name.wav|text.
  2. All necessary parameters for preprocessing should be set in configs/experiments/waveglow.py or in configs/experiments/tacotron2.py, in the class PreprocessingConfig.
  3. If you're running preprocessing first time, set start_from_preprocessed flag to False. preprocess.py performs trimming of audio files up to PreprocessingConfig.top_db (cuts the silence in the beginning and the end), applies ffmpeg command in order to mono, make same sampling rate and bit rate for all the wavs in dataset.
  4. It saves a folder wavs with processed audio files and data.csv file in PreprocessingConfig.output_directory with the following format: path|text|speaker_name|speaker_id|emotion|text_len|duration.
  5. Trimming and ffmpeg command are applied only to speakers, for which flag process_audio is True. Speakers with flag emotion_present is False, are treated as with emotion neutral-normal.
  6. You won't need start_from_preprocessed = False once you finish running preprocessing script. Only exception in case of new raw data comes in.
  7. Once start_from_preprocessed is set to True, script loads file data.csv (created by the start_from_preprocessed = False run), and forms train.txt and val.txt out from data.csv.
  8. Main PreprocessingConfig parameters:
    1. cpus - defines number of cores for batch generator
    2. sr - defines sample ratio for reading and writing audio
    3. emo_id_map - dictionary for emotion name to emotion_id mapping
    4. data[{'path'}] - is path to folder named with speaker name and containing wavs folder and metadata.csv with the following line format: file_name.wav|text|emotion (optional)
  9. Preprocessing script forms training and validation datasets in the following way:
    1. selects rows with audio duration and text length less or equal those for speaker PreprocessingConfig.limit_by (this step is needed for proper batch size)
    2. if such speaker is not present, than it selects rows within PreprocessingConfig.text_limit and PreprocessingConfig.dur_limit. Lower limit for audio is defined by PreprocessingConfig.minimum_viable_dur
    3. in order to be able to use the same batch size as NVIDIA guys, set PreprocessingConfig.text_limit to linda_jonson
    4. splits dataset randomly by ratio train : val = 0.95 : 0.05
    5. if speaker train set is bigger than PreprocessingConfig.n - samples n rows
    6. saves train.txt and val.txt to PreprocessingConfig.output_directory
    7. saves emotion_coefficients.json and speaker_coefficients.json with coefficients for loss balancing (used by train.py).

Run preprocessing

Since both scripts waveglow.py and tacotron2.py contain the class PreprocessingConfig, training and validation dataset can be produced by running any of them:

python preprocess.py --exp tacotron2

or

python preprocess.py --exp waveglow

Training

Preparing for training

Tacotron 2

In configs/experiment/tacotron2.py, in the class Config set:

  1. training_files and validation_files - paths to train.txt, val.txt;
  2. tacotron_checkpoint - path to pretrained Tacotron 2 if it exist (we were able to restore Waveglow from Nvidia, but Tacotron 2 code was edited to add speakers and emotions, so Tacotron 2 needs to be trained from scratch);
  3. speaker_coefficients - path to speaker_coefficients.json;
  4. emotion_coefficients - path to emotion_coefficients.json;
  5. output_directory - path for writing logs and checkpoints;
  6. use_emotions - flag indicating emotions usage;
  7. use_loss_coefficients - flag indicating loss scaling due to possible data disbalance in terms of both speakers and emotions; for balancing loss, set paths to jsons with coefficients in emotion_coefficients and speaker_coefficients;
  8. model_name - "Tacotron2".
  • Launch training
    • Single gpu:
      python train.py --exp tacotron2
      
    • Multigpu training:
      python -m multiproc train.py --exp tacotron2
      

WaveGlow:

In configs/experiment/waveglow.py, in the class Config set:

  1. training_files and validation_files - paths to train.txt, val.txt;
  2. waveglow_checkpoint - path to pretrained Waveglow, restored from Nvidia. Download checkopoint.
  3. output_directory - path for writing logs and checkpoints;
  4. use_emotions - False;
  5. use_loss_coefficients - False;
  6. model_name - "WaveGlow".
  • Launch training
    • Single gpu:
      python train.py --exp waveglow
      
    • Multigpu training:
      python -m multiproc train.py --exp waveglow
      

Running Tensorboard

Once you made your model start training, you might want to see some progress of training:

docker ps

Select container id of image with tag taco and run:

docker exec -it container_id bash

Start Tensorboard:

 tensorboard --logdir=path_to_folder_with_logs --host=0.0.0.0

Loss is being written into tensorboard:

Tensorboard Scalars

Audio samples together with attention alignments are saved into tensorbaord each Config.epochs_per_checkpoint. Transcripts for audios are listed in Config.phrases

Tensorboard Audio

Inference

Running inference with the inference.ipynb notebook.

Run Jupyter Notebook:

jupyter notebook --ip 0.0.0.0 --port 6006 --no-browser --allow-root

output:

Write a text to be displayed in the cell [7] of the inference.ipynb.
