### Features:
Via the easy-to-use, efficient, flexible and scalable implementation, our vision is to empower both industrial application and academic research, including training, inference & testing modules, and deployment process. To be more specific, this toolkit features at:
- **Ease of Use**: low barriers to install, and [CLI](#quick-start) is available to quick-start your journey.
- **Align to the State-of-the-Art**: we provide high-speed and ultra-lightweight models, and also cutting-edge technology.
- **Rule-based Chinese frontend**: our frontend contains Text Normalization and Grapheme-to-Phoneme (G2P, including Polyphone and Tone Sandhi). Moreover, we use self-defined linguistic rules to adapt Chinese context.

- **Varieties of Functions that Vitalize both Industrial and Academia**:
- *Implementation of critical audio tasks*: this toolkit contains audio functions like Audio Classification, Speech Translation, Automatic Speech Recognition, Text-to-Speech Synthesis, etc.
- *Integration of mainstream models and datasets*: the toolkit implements modules that participate in the whole pipeline of the speech tasks, and uses mainstream datasets like LibriSpeech, LJSpeech, AIShell, CSMSC, etc. See also [model list](#model-list) for more details.
- *Cascaded models application*: as an extension of the typical traditional audio tasks, we combine the workflows of the aforementioned tasks with other fields like Natural language processing (NLP) and Computer Vision (CV).

The Text-to-Speech module is originally called [Parakeet](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Parakeet), and now merged with this repository. If you are interested in academic research about this task, please see [TTS research overview](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleSpeech/tree/develop/docs/source/tts#overview). Also, [this document](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleSpeech/blob/develop/docs/source/tts/models_introduction.md) is a good guideline for the pipeline components.
