WaveGrad is a conditional model for waveform generation through estimating gradients of the data density with WaveNet-similar sampling quality. This vocoder is neither GAN, nor Normalizing Flow, nor classical autoregressive model. The main concept of vocoder is based on Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DDPM), which utilize Langevin dynamics and score matching frameworks. Furthemore, comparing to classic DDPM, WaveGrad achieves super-fast convergence (6 iterations and probably lower) w.r.t. Langevin dynamics iterative sampling scheme.
- Clone this repo:
git clone https://github.com/ivanvovk/WaveGrad.git
cd WaveGrad- Install requirements:
pip install -r requirements.txt- Make train and test filelists of your audio data like ones included into
filelistsfolder. - Make a configuration file* in
configsfolder.
*Note: if you are going to change hop_length for STFT, then make sure that the product of your upsampling factors in config is equal to your new hop_length.
- Open
runs/train.shscript and specify visible GPU devices and path to your configuration file. If you specify more than one GPU the training will run in distributed mode. - Run
sh runs/train.sh
To track your training process run tensorboard by tensorboard --logdir=logs/YOUR_LOGDIR_FOLDER. All logging information and checkpoints will be stored in logs/YOUR_LOGDIR_FOLDER. logdir is specified in config file.
Once model is trained, grid search for the best schedule* for a needed number of iterations in notebooks/inference.ipynb. The code supports parallelism, so you can specify more than one number of jobs to accelerate the search.
*Note: grid search is necessary just for a small number of iterations (like 6 or 7). For larger number just try Fibonacci sequence benchmark.fibonacci(...) initialization: I used it for 25 iteration and it works well. From good 25-iteration schedule, for example, you can build a higher-order schedule by copying elements.
- 6-iteration schedule was obtained using grid search. After, based on obtained scheme, by hand, I found a slightly better approximation.
- 7-iteration schedule was obtained in the same way.
- 12-iteration schedule was obtained in the same way.
- 25-iteration schedule was obtained using Fibonacci sequence
benchmark.fibonacci(...). - 50-iteration schedule was obtained by repeating elements from 25-iteration scheme.
- 100-iteration schedule was obtained in the same way.
- 1000-iteration schedule was obtained in the same way.
Put your mel-spectrograms in some folder. Make a filelist. Then run this command with your own arguments:
sh runs/inference.sh -c <your-config> -ch <your-checkpoint> -ns <your-noise-schedule> -m <your-mel-filelist> -v "yes"More inference details are provided in notebooks/inference.ipynb. There you can also find how to set a noise schedule for the model and make grid search for the best scheme.
Examples of generated audios are provided in generated_samples folder. Quality degradation between 1000-iteration and 6-iteration inferences is not noticeable if found the best schedule for the latter.
You can find a pretrained checkpoint file* on LJSpeech (22KHz) via this Google Drive link.
*Note: uploaded checkpoint is a dict with a single key 'model'.
- During training WaveGrad uses a default noise schedule with 1000 iterations and linear scale betas from range (1e-6, 0.01). For inference you can set another schedule with less iterations. Tune betas carefully, the output quality really highly depends on it.
- By default model runs in a mixed-precision way. Batch size is modified compared to the paper (256 -> 96) since authors trained their model on TPU.
- After ~10k training iterations (1-2 hours) on a single GPU the model performs good generation for 50-iteration inference. Total training time is about 1-2 days (for absolute convergence).
- At some point training might start to behave weird and crazy (loss explodes), so I have introduced learning rate (LR) scheduling and gradient clipping. If loss explodes for your data, then try to decrease LR scheduler gamma a bit. It should help.
- By default hop length of your STFT is equal 300 (thus total upsampling factor). Other cases are not tested, but you can try. Remember, that total upsampling factor should be still equal to your new hop length.
- (NEW: 10/24/2020) Huge update. Distributed training and mixed-precision support. More correct positional encoding. CLI support for inference. Parallel grid search. Model size significantly decreased.
- New RTF info for NVIDIA Tesla K80 GPU card (popular in Google Colab service) and CPU Intel Xeon 2.3GHz.
- Huge update. New 6-iteration well generated sample example. New noise schedule setting API. Added the best schedule grid search code.
- Improved training by introducing smarter learning rate scheduler. Obtained high-fidelity synthesis.
- Stable training and multi-iteration inference. 6-iteration noise scheduling is supported.
- Stable training and fixed-iteration inference with significant background static noise left. All positional encoding issues are solved.
- Stable training of 25-, 50- and 1000-fixed-iteration models. Found no linear scaling (C=5000 from paper) of positional encoding (bug).
- Stable training of 25-, 50- and 1000-fixed-iteration models. Fixed positional encoding downscaling. Parallel segment sampling is replaced by full-mel sampling.
- (RELEASE, first on GitHub). Parallel segment sampling and broken positional encoding downscaling. Bad quality with clicks from concatenation from parallel-segment generation.
