The audio broadcasting models have reached high quality speech, music and synthesis of Foley sound, but they mainly excel in the generation of samples rather than the optimization of parameters. Tasks such as the generation of physically informed impact sound or the separation of an invite source require models that can adjust the explicit and interpretable parameters under structural constraints. Score distillation sampling (SDS) – which fueled 3D text and image editing by retro -propagation through priests of pre -treated diffusion – has not yet been applied to audio. The adaptation of SDS to audio broadcasting makes it possible to optimize parametric audio representations without assembling large sets of data specific to tasks, punching modern generative models with configured synthetic workflows.
Classic audio techniques – such as the synthesis of frequency modulation (FM), which uses oscillators modulated by the operator to develop rich stamps and simulators with physically founded impact appearance – compact and interpretable compact parameter spaces. Likewise, the separation of sources has increased from the factorization of the matrix to neural methods and guided by text to isolate components such as voices or instruments. By integrating SDS updates with pre-extended audio broadcasting models, we can take advantage of the generators learned to guide the optimization of FM parameters, simulators of its impact or separation masks directly from high-level invites, unite the interpretability of signal processing with the flexibility of modern generation based on diffusion.
NVIDIA and MIT researchers introduce audio-SDS, an SDS extension for audio diffusion models conditioned by the text. Audio-SDS operates a single pre-trained model to perform various audio tasks without requiring specialized data sets. Distillating the priors in parametric audio representations facilitate tasks such as impact sound simulation, calibration of FM synthetic parameters and separation of sources. The frame combines priors based on data with an explicit control of parameters, producing convincing results perceptually. The main improvements include an SDS based on a stable decoder, a multi -steps clearing and a spectrogram approach with several scales for better high frequency and realism details.
The study discusses the application of SDS to audio distribution models. Inspired by Dreamfusion, SDS generates stereo audio through a rendering function, improving performance bypassing the encoder gradients and rather focusing on the decoded audio. The methodology is improved by three modifications: avoid the instability of the encoder, emphasizing the functionalities of the spectrogram to highlight the details at high frequency and the use of a multiple stages for better stability. Audio-SDS applications include FM synthesizers, the synthesis of impact sound and the separation of sources. These tasks show how SDS adapts to different audio areas without recycling, ensuring that the synthesized audio aligns with textual prompts while maintaining high fidelity.
The performance of the audio-SDS frames are demonstrated on three tasks: FM synthesis, impact synthesis and separation of sources. The experiments are designed to test the effectiveness of the frame using both subjective (listening tests) and objective measures such as the clap score, the distance to the ground on the ground and the signal-disclose ratio (SDR). Pre-trained models, such as the stable open audio control point, are used for these tasks. The results show an audio synthesis and significant separation improvements, with a clear alignment on text prompts.
In conclusion, the study presents Audio-Sds, a method that extends SD to audio diffusion models conditioned by the text. Using a single pre-trained model, the audio-SDS allows a variety of tasks, such as the simulation of physically informed impact sounds, the adjustment of the FM synthetic parameters and the execution of the separation of the sources according to the invites. The approach unifies data focused on data with representations defined by the user, eliminating the need for large data sets specific to the domain. Although there are challenges in the cover of models, latent coding artifacts and optimization sensitivity, audio-ss demonstrates the potential of methods based on distillation for multimodal research, especially in audio-related tasks.
