After training a similar model for a different purpose, I realized that
this model is faulty: the contrastive loss it uses only pays attention
to high-frequency details which do not contribute meaningfully to
output quality. I validated this by comparing a no-CVVP output with
a baseline using tts-scores and found no differences.
- Adds a new script and API endpoints for doing this
- Reworks autoregressive and diffusion models so that the conditioning is computed separately (which will actually provide a mild performance boost)
- Updates README
This is untested. Need to do the following manual tests (and someday write unit tests for this behemoth before
it becomes a problem..)
1) Does get_conditioning_latents.py work?
2) Can I feed those latents back into the model by creating a new voice?
3) Can I still mix and match voices (both with conditioning latents and normal voices) with read.py?
