This paper introduces FlowMAC, a novel neural audio codec for high-quality general audio compression at low bit rates based on conditional flow matching (CFM). FlowMAC jointly learns a mel spectrogram encoder, quantizer and decoder. At inference time the decoder integrates a continuous normalizing f…
Speech enhancement involves the distinction of a target speech signal from an intrusive background. Although generative approaches using Variational Autoencoders or Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have increasingly been used in recent years, normalizing flow (NF) based systems are still scars…
This paper introduces DREGON, a novel publicly-available dataset that aims at pushing research in sound source localization using a microphone array embedded in an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The dataset contains both clean and noisy in-flight audio recordings continuously annotated with the 3D p…
