Scikit-learn: Machine Learning in Python

TL;DR: Scikit-learn is a Python module integrating a wide range of state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms for medium-scale supervised and unsupervised problems, focusing on bringing machine learning to non-specialists using a general-purpose high-level language.

Natural TTS Synthesis by Conditioning Wavenet on MEL Spectrogram Predictions

TL;DR: Tacotron 2, a neural network architecture for speech synthesis directly from text that is composed of a recurrent sequence-to-sequence feature prediction network that maps character embeddings to mel-scale spectrograms, followed by a modified WaveNet model acting as a vocoder to synthesize time-domain waveforms from those Spectrograms is described.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

CNN architectures for large-scale audio classification

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used various CNN architectures to classify the soundtracks of a dataset of 70M training videos (5.24 million hours) with 30,871 video-level labels.
