Chunked Autoregressive GAN (CARGAN)
Official implementation of the paper Chunked Autoregressive GAN for Conditional Waveform Synthesis [paper] [companion website]
Table of contents
Installation
pip install cargan
Configuration
All configuration is performed in cargan/constants.py. The default configuration is CARGAN. Additional configuration files for experiments described in our paper can be found in config/.
Inference
CLI
Infer from an audio files on disk. audio_files and output_files can be lists of files to perform batch inference.
python -m cargan \
--audio_files
\
--output_files
\
--checkpoint
\
--gpu
Infer from files of features on disk. feature_files and output_files can be lists of files to perform batch inference.
python -m cargan \
--feature_files
\
--output_files
\
--checkpoint
\
--gpu

Reproducing results
For the following subsections, the arguments are as follows
checkpoint- Path to an existing checkpoint on diskdatasets- A list of datasets to use. Supported datasets arevctk,daps,cumsum, andmusdb.gpu- The index of the gpu to usegpus- A list of indices of gpus to use for distributed data parallelism (DDP)name- The name to give to an experiment or evaluationnum- The number of samples to evaluate
Download
Downloads, unzips, and formats datasets. Stores datasets in data/datasets/. Stores formatted datasets in data/cache/.
python -m cargan.data.download --datasets
vctk must be downloaded before cumsum.
Preprocess
Prepares features for training. Features are stored in data/cache/.
python -m cargan.preprocess --datasets
--gpu
Running this step is not required for the cumsum experiment.
Partition
Partitions a dataset into training, validation, and testing partitions. You should not need to run this, as the partitions used in our work are provided for each dataset in cargan/assets/partitions/.
python -m cargan.partition --datasets
The optional --overwrite flag forces the existing partition to be overwritten.
Train
Trains a model. Checkpoints and logs are stored in runs/.
python -m cargan.train \
--name
\
--datasets
\
--gpus
You can optionally specify a --checkpoint option pointing to the directory of a previous run. The most recent checkpoint will automatically be loaded and training will resume from that checkpoint. You can overwrite a previous training by passing the --overwrite flag.
You can monitor training via tensorboard as follows.
tensorboard --logdir runs/ --port
Evaluate
Objective
Reports the pitch RMSE (in cents), periodicity RMSE, and voiced/unvoiced F1 score. Results are both printed and stored in eval/objective/.
python -m cargan.evaluate.objective \
--name
\
--datasets
\
--checkpoint
\
--num
\
--gpu
Subjective
Generates samples for subjective evaluation. Also performs benchmarking of inference speed. Results are stored in eval/subjective/.
python -m cargan.evaluate.subjective \
--name
\
--datasets
\
--checkpoint
\
--num
\
--gpu
Receptive field
Get the size of the (non-causal) receptive field of the generator. cargan.AUTOREGRESSIVE must be False to use this.
python -m cargan.evaluate.receptive_field
Running tests
pip install pytest
pytest
