Silero Models

Silero Models: pre-trained enterprise-grade STT / TTS models and benchmarks.

Enterprise-grade STT made refreshingly simple (seriously, see benchmarks). We provide quality comparable to Google's STT (and sometimes even better) and we are not Google.

As a bonus:

No Kaldi;
No compilation;
No 20-step instructions;

Also we have published TTS models that satisfy the following criteria:

One-line usage;
A large library of voices;
A fully end-to-end pipeline;
Naturally sounding speech;
No GPU or training required;
Minimalism and lack of dependencies;
Faster than real-time on one CPU thread (!!!);
Support for 16kHz and 8kHz out of the box;

Also we have published a model for text repunctuation and recapitalization that:

Inserts capital letters and basic punctuation marks (dot, comma, hyphen, question mark, exclamation mark, dash for Russian);
Works for 4 languages (Russian, English, German, Spanish) and can be extended;
By design is domain agnostic and is not based on any hard-coded rules;
Has non-trivial metrics and succeeds in the task of improving text readability;

Dependencies

All examples:
- torch, 1.8+ (used to clone the repo in tf and onnx examples), breaking changes for version older than 1.6
- torchaudio, latest version bound to PyTorch should work
- omegaconf, latest just should work
Additional for ONNX examples:
- onnx, latest just should work
- onnxruntime, latest just should work
Additional for TensorFlow examples:
- tensorflow, latest just should work
- tensorflow_hub, latest just should work

Please see the provided Colab for details for each example below. All examples are maintained to work with the latest major packaged versions of the installed libraries.

PyTorch

import torch
import zipfile
import torchaudio
from glob import glob

device = torch.device('cpu')  # gpu also works, but our models are fast enough for CPU
model, decoder, utils = torch.hub.load(repo_or_dir='snakers4/silero-models',
                                       model='silero_stt',
                                       language='en', # also available 'de', 'es'
                                       device=device)
(read_batch, split_into_batches,
 read_audio, prepare_model_input) = utils  # see function signature for details

# download a single file, any format compatible with TorchAudio
torch.hub.download_url_to_file('https://opus-codec.org/static/examples/samples/speech_orig.wav',
                               dst ='speech_orig.wav', progress=True)

input = prepare_model_input(read_batch(batches[0]),
                            device=device)

output = model(input)
for example in output:
    print(decoder(example.cpu()))

ONNX

You can run our model everywhere, where you can import the ONNX model or run ONNX runtime.

import onnx
import torch
import onnxruntime
from omegaconf import OmegaConf

language = 'en' # also available 'de', 'es'

# load provided utils
_, decoder, utils = torch.hub.load(repo_or_dir='snakers4/silero-models', model='silero_stt', language=language)
(read_batch, split_into_batches,
 read_audio, prepare_model_input) = utils

# see available models
torch.hub.download_url_to_file('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/snakers4/silero-models/master/models.yml', 'models.yml')
models = OmegaConf.load('models.yml')
available_languages = list(models.stt_models.keys())
assert language in available_languages

# load the actual ONNX model
torch.hub.download_url_to_file(models.stt_models.en.latest.onnx, 'model.onnx', progress=True)
onnx_model = onnx.load('model.onnx')
onnx.checker.check_model(onnx_model)
ort_session = onnxruntime.InferenceSession('model.onnx')

# download a single file, any format compatible with TorchAudio
torch.hub.download_url_to_file('https://opus-codec.org/static/examples/samples/speech_orig.wav', dst ='speech_orig.wav', progress=True)
test_files = ['speech_orig.wav']
batches = split_into_batches(test_files, batch_size=10)
input = prepare_model_input(read_batch(batches[0]))

# actual onnx inference and decoding
onnx_input = input.detach().cpu().numpy()
ort_inputs = {'input': onnx_input}
ort_outs = ort_session.run(None, ort_inputs)
decoded = decoder(torch.Tensor(ort_outs[0])[0])
print(decoded)

(!!!) In multi_v2 all speakers can speak all of langauges (with various levels of fidelity).

Dependencies

Basic dependencies for colab examples:

torch, 1.9+;
torchaudio, latest version bound to PyTorch should work (required only because models are hosted together with STT, not required for work);
omegaconf, latest (can be removed as well, if you do not load all of the configs);

PyTorch

import torch

language = 'ru'
speaker = 'kseniya_v2'
sample_rate = 16000
device = torch.device('cpu')

model, example_text = torch.hub.load(repo_or_dir='snakers4/silero-models',
                                     model='silero_tts',
                                     language=language,
                                     speaker=speaker)
model.to(device)  # gpu or cpu

audio = model.apply_tts(texts=[example_text],
                        sample_rate=sample_rate)

Standalone Use

Standalone usage just requires PyTorch 1.9+ and python standard library;
Please see the detailed examples in Colab;

import os
import torch

device = torch.device('cpu')
torch.set_num_threads(4)
local_file = 'model.pt'

if not os.path.isfile(local_file):
    torch.hub.download_url_to_file('https://models.silero.ai/models/tts/ru/v2_kseniya.pt',
                                   local_file)  

model = torch.package.PackageImporter(local_file).load_pickle("tts_models", "model")
model.to(device)

example_batch = ['В недрах тундры выдры в г+етрах т+ырят в вёдра ядра кедров.',
                 'Котики - это жидкость!',
                 'М+ама М+илу м+ыла с м+ылом.']
sample_rate = 16000

audio_paths = model.save_wav(texts=example_batch,
                             sample_rate=sample_rate)

Dependencies

Basic dependencies for colab examples:

torch, 1.9+;
pyyaml, but it's installed with torch itself

Standalone Use

Standalone usage just requires PyTorch 1.9+ and python standard library;
Please see the detailed examples in Colab;

import torch

model, example_texts, languages, punct, apply_te = torch.hub.load(repo_or_dir='snakers4/silero-models',
                                                                  model='silero_te')

input_text = input('Enter input text\n')
apply_te(input_text, lan='en')
