HiFi-GAN is a neural vocoder model for text-to-speech applications. It is intended as the second part of a two-stage speech synthesis pipeline, with a mel-spectrogram generator such as FastPitch as the first stage.
HiFi-GAN is a neural vocoder based on a generative adversarial network framework. During training, the model uses a powerful discriminator consisting of small sub-discriminators, each one focusing on specific periodic parts of a raw waveform. The generator is very fast and has a small footprint, while producing high quality speech.
This model is trained on a mix of public and proprietary data sampled at 22050Hz, and can be used to generate an Italian voice. This model supports 1 male voice.
HiFi-GAN is intended to be used as the second part of a two stage speech synthesis pipeline. HiFi-GAN takes a mel-spectrogram and returns audio.
The encryption key for this model is dVRvg47ZqCdQrR
