GLaDOS Text-to-speech (TTS) Voice Generator

Neural network based TTS Engine.

If you want to just play around with the TTS, this works as stand-alone.

python3 glados-tts/glados.py

the TTS Engine can also be used remotely on a machine more powerful then the Pi to process in house TTS: (executed from glados-tts directory

python3 engine-remote.py

Default port is 8124 Be sure to update settings.env variable in your main Glados-voice-assistant directory:

TTS_ENGINE_API			= http://192.168.1.3:8124/synthesize/

Description

The initial, regular Tacotron model was trained first on LJSpeech, and then on a heavily modified version of the Ellen McClain dataset (all non-Portal 2 voice lines removed, punctuation added).

• The Forward Tacotron model was only trained on about 600 voice lines.
• The HiFiGAN model was generated through transfer learning from the sample.
• All models have been optimized and quantized.
