Gooya RizehPizeh v2

Persian single-speaker Piper/VITS2 voice trained on full, unchunked Wikipedia recordings whose audio/transcript agreement passed AvaSanj. It uses a case-sensitive Negara-style phonetic/Finglish frontend and produces 22,050 Hz mono audio.

Current release

This revision replaces the earlier segmented-data v2 model with the user-selected unchunked/AvaSanj-approved 50K run.

Training data

The parent corpus comes from the approved Persian rows in Reza2kn/Wikipedia-FA-EN-DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731.

• Train: 1,290 full recordings, 21.1455 hours
• Parent-disjoint validation: 100 full recordings, 1.6445 hours
• Untouched sealed-eval agreement slice: 253 recordings, 4.1080 hours
• Recording duration: 38.68–95.96 seconds; mean 58.94 seconds
• Phoneme IDs per recording: 1,711–3,423; mean 2,174.65
• AvaSanj compact CER threshold: <= 0.12
• Train/validation/sealed-eval parent overlap: zero
• Audio transform: none
• Silence trimming: disabled
• Segmentation/chunking: none

The 253-row sealed-eval agreement slice was not consumed by training or checkpoint selection. The complete selection and hash receipt is in training/unchunked-avasanj-agree-report.json.

Lineage and training

The original v1.5 production ONNX had no matching resumable checkpoint. Its 350 inference-time generator tensors were reconstructed into a compatible trainable Piper checkpoint; training-only branches absent from the ONNX came from the compatible Mana template. Recovery receipts remain under training/.

The promoted run resumed from that recovered v1.5 state and used:

• BF16 mixed precision
• Batch size 1
• Generator learning rate 5e-6
• Discriminator learning rate 2.5e-6
• Configured limit: 50,000 optimizer steps
• Final/best validation mel: 0.4138

The exact continuation script is training/train_unchunked_avasanj_agree_full50k.sh.

Validation

The published ONNX is self-contained and has no external tensor file. Direct ONNX Runtime CPU inference passed on both the canonical and long colloquial probes with finite, positive-length output. The same WAVs used for human listening are included under samples/.

• Inputs: input, input_lengths, scales
• Output: output
• File size: 63,516,051 bytes
• Canonical sample: 4.7137 seconds
• Long colloquial sample: 12.6084 seconds

Machine-readable receipts are under browser/ and training/.

Inference

Input must already be case-sensitive Negara-compatible phonetic text:

echo "zurxAneye vahdat yek makAne varzeSi dar Sahre borujerd ast." | \
  piper --model gooya-rizehpizeh-v2.onnx \
        --config gooya-rizehpizeh-v2.onnx.json \
        --output_file output.wav

For long-form narration, split at semantic sentence or clause boundaries into substantial spans and join them with boundary-aware pauses. Tiny fixed chunks tend to sound breathy and robotic.

Limitations

• G2P/Finglish quality remains the dominant source of pronunciation errors.
• The approved training labels are flat Negara phoneme sequences; existing internal punctuation was not available in those labels.
• Very long single-pass phoneme sequences can still collapse or omit content; use substantial semantic spans.
• Proper nouns may require corrected phonetic input.
