# MunTTS: A Text-to-Speech System for Mundari

**Official Repository for ["MunTTS: A Text-to-Speech System for Mundari"](https://aclanthology.org/2024.computel-1.11/). This work has been done in collaboration with [Karya](https://karya.in/).**

## Abstract
We present **MunTTS**, an end-to-end text-to-speech (TTS) system specifically for Mundari, a low-resource Indian language of the Austo-Asiatic family. Our work addresses the gap in linguistic technology for underrepresented languages by collecting and processing data to build a speech synthesis system. We begin our study by gathering a substantial dataset of Mundari text and speech and train end-to-end speech models. We also delve into the methods used for training our models, ensuring they are efficient and effective despite the data constraints. We evaluate our system with native speakers and objective metrics, demonstrating its potential as a tool for preserving and promoting the Mundari language in the digital age.

## Setup
Follow the given commands to create a virtual environment for this project and install necessary packages.

- Create an experiment directory 
- Clone this repository in it and run the following commands (preferable to use a Linux-based system with a GPU)

```bash 
# create a virtual environment (preferably, use Python 3.10+)
conda create -n coqui-tts python=3.10
conda activate coqui-tts

# install pytorch
conda install pytorch torchvision torchaudio pytorch-cuda=11.8 -c pytorch -c nvidia
pip install pymcd scikit-learn ffmpeg

# install Coqui-TTS
git clone https://github.com/coqui-ai/TTS
pip install --editable ./
cd ../

## Training a new VITS model
- Run `src/format_dataset.sh` with necessary cmdline arguments to format your dataset in the required fashion. 
- Run `src/train_vits.sh` with necessary cmdline arguments to train a VITS model on your data. It is recommended you adjust the hyperparameters as per your requirement. 
- Run `src/test_vits.sh` with necessary cmdline arguments to generate speech samples for the test set using the best checkpoint of the VITS model just trained. This is also apply audio enhancement using `ffmpeg` to generated and the enhanced audios are saved in a directory with suffix `_cleaned`.
