### How to use

See example in this [notebook](https://github.com/bene-ges/nemo_compatible/blob/main/notebooks/Russian_TTS_with_IPA_G2P_FastPitch_and_HifiGAN.ipynb). It contains the inference pipeline for  G2P + FastPitch + HifiGAN.

### Input

This model expects text converted to IPA-like transcriptions. See this [g2p model](https://huggingface.co/bene-ges/ru_g2p_ipa_bert_large) for conversion of plain Russian text to phonemes.
If you feed plain text directly, it will work, but quality will be low.

### Output

This model generates mel spectrograms.

## Training

The NeMo toolkit [1] was used for training the model for 1000+ epochs.

### Datasets

This model is trained on [RUSLAN](https://ruslan-corpus.github.io/) [2] corpus (single speaker, male voice) sampled at 22050Hz.
