Are trainable (PyTorch) weights available for Piper ONNX models

Hi,

I’m using Piper voices with sherpa-onnx and looking to finetune a Nepali model:

I wanted to ask:

  1. Are the original PyTorch/VITS training checkpoints for this Piper voice available anywhere?
  2. If not, is the expected approach to retrain or finetune via Coqui TTS/VITS and then export to ONNX?

My goal is to improve Nepali pronunciation quality via acoustic finetuning rather than text-side hacks.

Thanks.
