Happy to see that DeMask built with asteroid won the first place of the @PyTorch summer #hackathon! The model allows you to enhance muffled speech when wearing facemask Demo: youtu.be/QLf10Uqu8Yk 👋 to our team: @mnlpariente @michelolzam @_jonashaag and Samuel Cornell

I am looking for reviewers for a @JOSS_TheOJ submission with expertise in speech and python. The software under review is a new speech enhancement module of github.com/espnet/espnet (hence its so difficult to get reviewers without conflicts of interest). Any pointer is helpful!

I guess developers are thrilled!
Starting February 9, we will no longer support free access to the Twitter API, both v2 and v1.1. A paid basic tier will be available instead 🧵

Hey music separation researchers. We added a new definition of the SDR metric when we launched the last @sounddemix. To make it less confusing for future papers, we want to rename the metric. Please vote
32%TSNR
7%uSNR
11%NSDR
50%uSDR

What a sad end. I’ve never used the twitter app or their website for anything than a quick post and I won’t do that. Taking a break and waiting for #ivory
This is a proof that #Twitter has deliberately suspended @tweetbot. The developers just created a new Twitter API app and obtained new credentials. The app works, albeit with limits. Twitter API is not broken. If a platform pushes devs to resort to such workarounds, it's doomed

Wait & Biases. Anyone switched to a faster experiment tracker… aimstack.io ?

Great content at @ISMIRConf this year but I have to say that the hybrid format worked out worse than I had hoped. I wouldn’t attend hybrid again if it won’t have dedicated slots to meet people.

I am assigned to review #ICASSP2023 papers without having received an invitation. Is that how @ieeeICASSP fills in missing reviewers?

@JonathanLeRoux @justin_salamon do you know if this is possible or did I just miss a mail?

Brilliant paper!
🧠how does the brain process rapid speech-sound sequences? 💬how is auditory content maintained over time? 🧮how is temporal order encoded using an evolving spatial pattern? for answers, see our latest paper! nature.com/articles/s41467-0… @JeanRemiKing @davidpoeppel @AlecMarantz

@nedwards just saw your article on airtags for tracking luggage... maybe worth adding some notes on airline regulations? arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022…
Excellent intro to scientific audio in python!
Videos from this year's @europython are up, including my talk on Working with Audio in Python! Check it out if you're interested in, well, working with audio in Python - or if you're just curious how audio software works from the ground up. youtube.com/watch?v=NYhkqXpF…

Replying to @StabilityAI
"Company StabilityAI has requested a takedown of this published model characterizing it as a leak of their IP" Interesting....I thought StabilityAI stood for a decentralized push for AI. So this move surprises me (even though they later retracted it). huggingface.co/runwayml/stab…

Did you license these sounds for this purpose? For example, PSE expressly prohibits using our sounds in ML applications for generative sound (like this). The BBC remarc license does not contemplate this, and certainly doesnt allow for commercial use or redistribution of any kind

Looks like a new music separation SOTA model?
A very clever idea of splitting spectrogram into bands and apply RNN and achieve SDR=10dB on vocals! Music Source Separation with Band-split RNN arxiv.org/pdf/2209.15174.pdf

This is by far my favorite #stablediffusion music video youtu.be/OJWJE0x7T4Q

This is tinkering and engineering with open source tools (which is great) but not „an explosion of creativity“.
🔥New Video🔥Stable Diffusion has been released and is riding a wave of creativity and collaboration. But not everyone is happy about this. This video takes a look at the vibrant open-source community around the model, and its critics. Watch here: youtu.be/xbxe-x6wvRw
