Training, evaluation, and inference of neural phonetic posteriorgrams (PPGs) in PyTorch
An inference-only installation with our best model is pip-installable
pip install ppgs
To perform training, install training dependencies and FFMPEG.
pip install ppgs[train]
conda install -c conda-forge ffmpeg
If you wish to use the Charsiu representation, download the code, install both inference and training dependencies, and install Charsiu as a Git submodule.
# Clone
git clone [email protected]/interactiveaudiolab/ppgs
cd ppgs/
# Install dependencies
pip install -e .[train]
conda install -c conda-forge ffmpeg
# Download Charsiu
