Works with SpeechBrain v0.5.12

Pipeline description

The mimic loss training system consists of three steps:

  • A perceptual model is pre-trained on clean speech features, the same type used for the enhancement masking system.
  • An enhancement model is trained with mimic loss, using the pre-trained perceptual model.
  • A large ASR model pre-trained on LibriSpeech is fine-tuned using the enhancement front-end.
  • The enhancement and ASR models can be used together or independently.

    Install SpeechBrain

    First of all, please install SpeechBrain with the following command:

    pip install speechbrain
    

    Please notice that we encourage you to read our tutorials and learn more about SpeechBrain .

    Pretrained Usage

    To use the mimic-loss-trained model for enhancement, use the following simple code:

    import torchaudio
    from speechbrain.pretrained import WaveformEnhancement
    
    enhance_model = WaveformEnhancement.from_hparams(
        source="speechbrain/mtl-mimic-voicebank",
        savedir="pretrained_models/mtl-mimic-voicebank",
    )
    enhanced = enhance_model.enhance_file("speechbrain/mtl-mimic-voicebank/example.wav")
    
    # Saving enhanced signal on disk
    torchaudio.save('enhanced.wav', enhanced.unsqueeze(0).cpu(), 16000)
    

    The system is trained with recordings sampled at 16kHz (single channel). The code will automatically normalize your audio (i.e., resampling + mono channel selection) when calling enhance_file if needed. Make sure your input tensor is compliant with the expected sampling rate if you use enhance_batch as in the example.

    Inference on GPU

    To perform inference on the GPU, add run_opts={"device":"cuda"} when calling the from_hparams method.

    Training

    The model was trained with SpeechBrain (150e1890). To train it from scratch follows these steps:

  • Clone SpeechBrain:
  • git clone https://github.com/speechbrain/speechbrain/
    
  • Install it:
  • cd speechbrain
    pip install -r requirements.txt
    pip install -e .
    
  • Run Training:
  • cd  recipes/Voicebank/MTL/ASR_enhance
    python train.py hparams/enhance_mimic.yaml --data_folder=your_data_folder
    

    You can find our training results (models, logs, etc) here .

    Limitations

    The SpeechBrain team does not provide any warranty on the performance achieved by this model when used on other datasets.
