# IndexTTS2-derived waveform decoder for FreezeEmpath

This package converts FreezeEmpath speech tokens into 22,050 Hz mono waveforms, using components from [IndexTTS2](https://github.com/index-tts/index-tts), Amphion/MaskGCT, and NVIDIA BigVGAN.

[FreezeEmpath model](https://huggingface.co/ICTNLP/FreezeEmpath) · [Code and instructions](https://github.com/ictnlp/FreezeEmpath) · [Paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2604.18159)

## Contents and use

- `config.yaml`: semantic codec and flow-matching configuration.
- `semantic_codec.safetensors`: semantic codec weights.
- `s2mel.pth`: flow-matching model weights.
- `bigvgan_generator.pt`: vocoder weights.
- `style.pt`, `prompt_condition.pt`, `ref_mel.pt`: fixed voice conditions used by the released example.

Use the FreezeEmpath GitHub code and its bundled BigVGAN architecture configuration:

```bash
python inference/codes2wav.py \
  --cfg_path checkpoints/indextts2_codes2wav/config.yaml \
  --model_dir checkpoints/indextts2_codes2wav \
  --input_file outputs/answers.jsonl \
  --output_dir outputs/wav --seed 42
```

The input must contain `prediction_units` speech tokens generated by `inference/infer.py --s2s`; this package is not a standalone text-to-speech interface. The example uses a fixed voice, not user-selected speaker prompts.
