End of development indefinitely
- song lyric recognition
- voice synthesis model
- My Hish School Graduation project and my very first academic paper implementation project(without any code source)
- I was only able to develop the first model(lyric alignment model) only. The data I collected wasn’t clear enough for the next step model
- project's purpose was to synthesize Korean songs given users' voices.
- developed based on the DeepSinger: Singing Voice Synthesis with Data Mined From the Web
-
By studying the previous research, I develop everything from the scratch from data collection and model training
-
data collection and preprocessing
- using scrapy with python I collected audio from youtube and lyrics from Melone.
- using Spleeter I removed the MR from the audio. (The author used the data from the recording room, but I wasn’t able to get my hands on such data)
- normalization of audio volume.
- using some algorithms, remove parts that have no vocals.
- turn lyrics to IPA(international phonetic alphabet)
- filter some song that doesn’t qualify(such as long songs, multi vocals)
-
The paper is composed of two models. one for finding out what audio frames match the lyrics and the other for the voice synthesis.
-
lyric alignment model
- Seq2Seq
- Seq2Seq model with Encoder, Decoder
- Input: Song → recognize lyrics from it
- using the model’s attention we can find out the relation between frames and IPA
- It is important to train a model with a clear attention graph. (look at the below images)
- location sensitive guided attention
- given previous attention values and the output of the encoder and decoder we calculate the attention
- as the attention differs from a diagonal line we give the model a bigger loss
- variation of truncated back-propagation through time(training algorithm)
- when we train the model, the model has to exceed a score of 0.6 in attention for it to step over the next parts of the song.
- Seq2Seq
