ESPnet-Codec: Comprehensive Training and Evaluation of Neural Codecs for Audio, Music, and Speech
Neural codecs have become crucial to recent speech and audio generation research. In addition to signal compression capabilities, discrete codecs have also been found to enhance downstream training efficiency and compatibility with autoregressive language models. However, as extensive downstream app...

description | Neural codecs have become crucial to recent speech and audio generation
research. In addition to signal compression capabilities, discrete codecs have
also been found to enhance downstream training efficiency and compatibility
with autoregressive language models. However, as extensive downstream
applications are investigated, challenges have arisen in ensuring fair
comparisons across diverse applications. To address these issues, we present a
new open-source platform ESPnet-Codec, which is built on ESPnet and focuses on
neural codec training and evaluation. ESPnet-Codec offers various recipes in
audio, music, and speech for training and evaluation using several widely
adopted codec models. Together with ESPnet-Codec, we present VERSA, a
standalone evaluation toolkit, which provides a comprehensive evaluation of
codec performance over 20 audio evaluation metrics. Notably, we demonstrate
that ESPnet-Codec can be integrated into six ESPnet tasks, supporting diverse
applications. |
