+# Vocoder with HiFIGAN Unit trained on LJSpeech
+
+This repository provides all the necessary tools for using a [HiFiGAN Unit](https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.00355) vocoder trained with [LJSpeech](https://keithito.com/LJ-Speech-Dataset/). 
+
+The pre-trained model take as input discrete self-supervised representations and produces a waveform as output. Typically, this model is utilized on top of a speech-to-unit translation model that converts an input utterance from a source language into a sequence of discrete speech units in a target language.  
+To generate the discrete self-supervised representations, we employ a K-means clustering model trained on the 6th layer of HuBERT, with `k=100`.
+
+## Install SpeechBrain
+
+First of all, please install tranformers and SpeechBrain with the following command:
+
+```
+pip install speechbrain transformers==4.28.0
+```
+
+Please notice that we encourage you to read our tutorials and learn more about
+[SpeechBrain](https://speechbrain.github.io).
+
+
+### Transcribing your own audio files
+
+```python
+from speechbrain.pretrained import UnitHIFIGAN
+
+hifi_gan_unit = UnitHIFIGAN.from_hparams(source="speechbrain/hifigan-unit-hubert-l6-k100-ljspeech")
+codes = torch.randint(0, 99, (100,))
+waveform = hifi_gan.decode_unit(codes)
+
+```
+
+### Inference on GPU
+To perform inference on the GPU, add  `run_opts={"device":"cuda"}`  when calling the `from_hparams` method.
+
+
+### Limitations
+The SpeechBrain team does not provide any warranty on the performance achieved by this model when used on other datasets.
