## What it is
A TensorFlow implementation of DC-TTS, a text-to-speech model based on deep convolutional networks with guided attention. It includes training pipelines for Text2Mel and SSRN components and was trained on English and Korean speech datasets.

## Use cases
- synthesize speech from text
- train a text-to-speech model on my own voice data
- reproduce the DC-TTS paper
- build a TTS model for Korean speech
- experiment with convolutional text-to-speech architectures

## When to choose
- you want to study or reproduce the DC-TTS architecture in TensorFlow
- you need a trainable TTS model for English or Korean single-speaker datasets
- you want a research-oriented TTS codebase to learn from

## When to avoid
- you need production-grade, actively maintained TTS
- you prefer PyTorch or modern TTS frameworks
- you need multi-speaker or zero-shot voice cloning

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: tts, deep-learning, machine-learning
- domain: speech-processing, deep-learning
- platform: python
- tags: tensorflow, dc-tts, text-to-speech, speech-synthesis, guided-attention, convolutional-networks, natural-language-processing
