MAEST is a family of Transformer models based on PASST and focused on music analysis applications. The MAEST models are also available for inference in the Essentia library and for inference and training in the official repository. You can try the MAEST interactive demo on replicate. MAEST is a music audio representation model pre-trained on the task of music style classification. According to the evaluation reported in the original paper, it reports good performance in several downstream music analysis tasks. The MAEST models can make predictions for a taxonomy of 400 music styles derived from the public metadata of Discogs. The MAEST models have reported good performance in downstream…

ced-base

Speech Team, Xiaomi MiLM Plus

CED are simple ViT-Transformer-based models for audio tagging, achieving sota performance on Audioset. Notable differences from other available models include: 1. Simplification for finetuning: Batchnormalization of Mel-Spectrograms. During finetuning one does not need to first compute mean/variance over the dataset, which is common for AST. 1. Support for variable length inputs. Most other models use a static time-frequency position embedding, which hinders the model's generalization to segments shorter than 10s. Many previous transformers simply pad their input to 10s in order to avoid the performance impact, which in turn slows down training/inference drastically. 1. Training/Inference…

Dasheng (Deep Audio-Signal Holistic Embeddings), or “大声” ("great sound"), is a general-purpose audio encoder trained on a large-scale self-supervised learning task. Dasheng is designed to capture rich audio information across various domains, including speech, music, and environmental sounds. The model is trained on 272,356 hours of diverse audio data with 1.2 billion parameters, and exhibits significant performance gains on the HEAR benchmark. Dasheng outperforms previous works on CREMA-D, LibriCount, Speech Commands, VoxLingua, and competes well in music and environmental sound classification tasks. examplefinetuneesc50.ipynb demonstrates how to train a linear head on the ESC-50 dataset…

The model expects a raw audio signal as input and outputs predictions for age in a range of approximately 0...1 (0...100 years) and gender expressing the probababilty for being child, female, or male. In addition, it also provides the pooled states of the last transformer layer. The model was created by fine-tuning Wav2Vec2-Large-Robust Timit and For this version of the model we only trained the first six transformer layers. An ONNX export of the model is available from Further details are given in the associated paper and tutorial.
