stable-codec-speech-16k Model Card

arch stable-codec-speech-16k is a Transformer-based codec model designed for high-quality, low-bitrate audio coding. It processes audio waveforms by encoding them into discrete tokens, which can later be decoded back into the original audio waveform.

Please note: For individuals or organizations generating annual revenue of US $1,000,000 (or local currency equivalent) or more, regardless of the source of that revenue, you must obtain an enterprise commercial license directly from Stability AI before commercially using Stable Codec, any derivative work of Stable Codec (such as a “fine tune” model), or their outputs. You may submit a request for an Enterprise License at https://stability.ai/enterprise. Please refer to Stability AI's Community License, available at https://stability.ai/license, for more information.

Model Description

  • Developed by: Stability AI
  • Model type: Transformer audio codec model
  • Model details: This released model is a speech codec designed to compress real-world speech data into a suitable format for generative modeling. It provides a foundational tool for developing downstream applications in speech understanding and generation, such as text-to-speech systems and conversational AI models. Please check our arXiv page and Github repo for details.

Model Sources

Training Dataset

The model was trained on datasets derived from creative commons or public domain audiobook recordings. See academic paper for more details.

Usage

For usage instructions, please refer to our GitHub repository

Intended Uses

Intended uses include the following: Efficient compression of speech signals for storage or streaming purposes. Enhancing speech-based applications, such as telecommunication systems and real-time communication platforms. Research and development in audio coding and speech synthesis, including understanding and improving codec performance. Development of downstream applications including speech recognition and generation.

All uses of the model should be in accordance with our Acceptable Use Policy.

Out-of-Scope Uses

This model is purely trained on non-overlapping clean English speech, and exhibits optimal performance in these situations. It is not suitable for applications requiring high-fidelity music or environmental sound coding.
