Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

WhisperSpeech – An Open Source text-to-speech system built by inverting Whisper
You might check out this list from espnet. They list the different corpuses they use to train their models sorted by language and task (ASR, TTS etc):

Text to speech generation
This work is made possible by the excellent advancements in text to speech modeling. ESPnet is a great project and should be checked out for more advanced and a wider range of use cases. This pipeline was also made possible by the great work from espnet_onnx in building a framework to export models to ONNX.

[P] TorToiSe - a true zero-shot multi-voice TTS engine
CMU WavLab has ESPNet https://espnet.github.io/espnet/ which includes a number of high quality TTS models including VITS (which in my subjective experience is just as good as what is demonstrated here). Also the inference on various ESPNet pretrained TTS models is reasonable and sentences take on average 5 seconds per word to generate the waveform on my totally mid PC setup.

speechbrain VS espnet - a user suggested alternative
2 projects | 13 Oct 2021
both provide e2e ASR support but espnet does have more utilities where as speechbarain is clean

Need help with training ASR model from scratch.
This is relatively small amount of speech to train the model from scratch, but you can train using another pre-trained model for initialization. There are numbers of end-to-end ASR toolkits which can be used for this: https://github.com/NVIDIA/NeMo and https://github.com/espnet/espnet
You actually dont need to have phone level alignment for your data. Both hybrid and end-2-end approaches can work with utterance level alignment. For the hybrid approach, you would need a lexicon which maps each unique word in your training transcription to its phone sequence. You can obtain this with CMU's tool. For end-2-end approach you will need a byte pair encoder to tokenize the words in the transcriptions to its sub-words.

Is there a python based speaker diarization system you would recommend?
Have a look at this PR at ESPnet. It might be useful.

- [D] What is the best open source text to speech model?
- A thought: we need language and voice synthesis models as free as Stable Diffusion
