Listen "WAVENET: A GENERATIVE MODEL FOR RAW AUDIO"
Episode Synopsis
WaveNet, a deep neural network designed to generate raw audio waveforms. The paper highlights WaveNet's ability to produce audio signals with unprecedented naturalness, surpassing the performance of existing text-to-speech systems. Key to WaveNet's success is the use of dilated causal convolutions, which enable the model to capture long-range temporal dependencies in audio data. The authors demonstrate WaveNet's versatility by showcasing its effectiveness in multi-speaker speech generation, music modeling, and speech recognition tasks. They also discuss the potential of WaveNet as a generic framework for tackling various audio generation applications.
