| # Irodori-TTS Compare |
|
|
| Hear Irodori-TTS v4.1 Small variants side by side: pick two, type a Japanese sentence (or pick an example), |
| and both read it with the same seed, voice and settings. |
|
|
| | Variant | What it is | |
| | :--- | :--- | |
| | [Irodori-TTS-v4.1-Small](https://huggingface.co/Aratako/Irodori-TTS-v4.1-Small) | the upstream model | |
| | [Irodori-TTS-v4.1-Small-Yomi](https://huggingface.co/takuma104/Irodori-TTS-v4.1-Small-Yomi) | text-encoder fine-tune for kanji readings | |
| | [Irodori-TTS-v4.1-Small-Yomi-Tech-tuned](https://huggingface.co/pentacoxian-dev/Irodori-TTS-v4.1-Small-Yomi-Tech-tuned) | Yomi plus a technical-term reading frontend stored in the model file (MQTT, API key, schedule, …) | |
|
|
| - **Yomi variant.** It is served from the Yomi-Tech-tuned file with the reading frontend turned off. The |
| tensors are identical, and so is the output. |
| - **Reading table.** Above the audio, a table shows how the frontend will read each English term in the |
| text, and whether the reading came from the dictionary, the reader, or letter-by-letter spelling. |
|
|
| ## Running |
|
|
| - **On Spaces.** Choose **ZeroGPU** hardware in the Space settings. Both models are downloaded from the |
| Hub at startup. |
| - **Locally.** In a Python 3.10 environment, run `pip install -r requirements.txt gradio==6.6.0`, then |
| `python app.py`. |
| - To use local files, set `OURS_CHECKPOINT` and `BASE_CHECKPOINT` to `model.safetensors` paths, each |
| with its `tokenizer/` folder beside it. |
| - `GRADIO_SERVER_PORT` picks the port. |
| |
| ## Code and licences |
|
|
| - `irodori_tts/`: [Aratako/Irodori-TTS](https://github.com/Aratako/Irodori-TTS) at commit `89f9d8f`, |
| unmodified. MIT; see `irodori_tts/LICENSE`. |
| - `tech_reading/` and `app.py`: MIT. |
| - **Model licences.** The models are downloaded from their own repos and keep their own licences. The |
| reading data inside the Yomi-Tech-tuned checkpoint is partly derived from JMdict (CC BY-SA 4.0); see |
| that model's card. |
| - **Ethics.** The [ethical restrictions of Irodori-TTS](https://huggingface.co/Aratako/Irodori-TTS-v4.1-Small#ethical-restrictions) |
| apply: no impersonation, and no misleading deepfakes. |
