Celtia: Nos Project's Galician TTS Model
Model description
This model was trained from scratch using the Coqui TTS Python library on the corpus Nos_Celtia-GL.
A live inference demo can be found in our official page, here.
This model was trained using graphemes, so no preprocessing is needed for the input text.
Intended uses and limitations
You can use this model to generate synthetic speech in Galician.
How to use
Usage
Required libraries:
pip install TTS
Synthesize a speech using python:
import tempfile
import numpy as np
import os
import json
from typing import Optional
from TTS.config import load_config
from TTS.utils.manage import ModelManager
from TTS.utils.synthesizer import Synthesizer
model_path = # Absolute path to the model checkpoint.pth
config_path = # Absolute path to the model config.json
text = "Text to synthetize"
synthesizer = Synthesizer(
model_path, config_path, None, None, None, None,
)
wavs = synthesizer.tts(text)

| Mixed Precision | true |
| Window Length | 1024 |
| Hop Length | 256 |
| FTT size | 1024 |
| Num Mels | 80 |
| Phonemizer | null |
| Phoneme Lenguage | en-us |
| Text Cleaners | multilingual_cleaners |
| Formatter | nos_fonemas |
| Optimizer | adam |
| Adam betas | (0.8, 0.99) |
| Adam eps | 1e-09 |
| Adam weight decay | 0.01 |
| Learning Rate Gen | 0.0002 |

| Learning Rate Disc | 0.0002 |
| Lr. schedurer Disc | ExponentialLR |
| Lr. schedurer Gamma Disc | 0.999875 |
The model was trained for 457900 steps.
The nos_fonemas formatter is a modification of the LJSpeech formatter with one extra column for the normalized input (extended numbers and acronyms).
