# ESPnet VITS Text-to-Speech (TTS) Model for ONNX

[espnet/kan-bayashi_ljspeech_vits](https://huggingface.co/espnet/kan-bayashi_ljspeech_vits). This model is an ONNX export using the [espnet_onnx](https://github.com/espnet/espnet_onnx) library. 

## Usage with txtai

txtai has a built in Text to Speech (TTS) pipeline that makes using this model easy.

```python
```

## Usage with ONNX

This model can also be run directly with ONNX provided the input text is tokenized. Tokenization can be done with [ttstokenizer](https://github.com/neuml/ttstokenizer).

```python
```

## How to export

More information on how to export ESPnet models to ONNX can be [found here](https://github.com/espnet/espnet_onnx#text2speech-inference).
