+# SpeechT5 (TTS task)
+
+SpeechT5 model fine-tuned for speech synthesis (text-to-speech) on LibriTTS.
+
+This model was introduced in [SpeechT5: Unified-Modal Encoder-Decoder Pre-Training for Spoken Language Processing](https://arxiv.org/abs/2110.07205) by Junyi Ao, Rui Wang, Long Zhou, Chengyi Wang, Shuo Ren, Yu Wu, Shujie Liu, Tom Ko, Qing Li, Yu Zhang, Zhihua Wei, Yao Qian, Jinyu Li, Furu Wei.
+
+SpeechT5 was first released in [this repository](https://github.com/microsoft/SpeechT5/), [original weights](https://huggingface.co/mechanicalsea/speecht5-tts). The license used is [MIT](https://github.com/microsoft/SpeechT5/blob/main/LICENSE).
+
+
+
+## Model Description
+
+Motivated by the success of T5 (Text-To-Text Transfer Transformer) in pre-trained natural language processing models, we propose a unified-modal SpeechT5 framework that explores the encoder-decoder pre-training for self-supervised speech/text representation learning. The SpeechT5 framework consists of a shared encoder-decoder network and six modal-specific (speech/text) pre/post-nets. After preprocessing the input speech/text through the pre-nets, the shared encoder-decoder network models the sequence-to-sequence transformation, and then the post-nets generate the output in the speech/text modality based on the output of the decoder.
+
+Leveraging large-scale unlabeled speech and text data, we pre-train SpeechT5 to learn a unified-modal representation, hoping to improve the modeling capability for both speech and text. To align the textual and speech information into this unified semantic space, we propose a cross-modal vector quantization approach that randomly mixes up speech/text states with latent units as the interface between encoder and decoder.
+
+Extensive evaluations show the superiority of the proposed SpeechT5 framework on a wide variety of spoken language processing tasks, including automatic speech recognition, speech synthesis, speech translation, voice conversion, speech enhancement, and speaker identification.

+## How to Get Started With the Model
+
+Use the code below to convert text into a mono 16 kHz speech waveform.
+
+```python
+# Following pip packages need to be installed:
+# !pip install git+https://github.com/huggingface/transformers sentencepiece datasets
+
+from transformers import SpeechT5Processor, SpeechT5ForTextToSpeech, SpeechT5HifiGan
+from datasets import load_dataset
+import torch
+import soundfile as sf
+from datasets import load_dataset
+
+processor = SpeechT5Processor.from_pretrained("microsoft/speecht5_tts")
+model = SpeechT5ForTextToSpeech.from_pretrained("microsoft/speecht5_tts")
+vocoder = SpeechT5HifiGan.from_pretrained("microsoft/speecht5_hifigan")
+
+inputs = processor(text="Hello, my dog is cute", return_tensors="pt")
+
+# load xvector containing speaker's voice characteristics from a dataset
+embeddings_dataset = load_dataset("Matthijs/cmu-arctic-xvectors", split="validation")
+speaker_embeddings = torch.tensor(embeddings_dataset[7306]["xvector"]).unsqueeze(0)
+
+speech = model.generate_speech(inputs["input_ids"], speaker_embeddings, vocoder=vocoder)
+
+sf.write("speech.wav", speech.numpy(), samplerate=16000)
+```
