Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for processing audio inputs using a learned audio frontend machine learning model that processes the audio input to generate a representation of the audio input. The representation can then be processed by an audio understanding model to generate a respective output for each of one or more audio understanding tasks.

Learned audio frontend machine learning model for audio understanding

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for processing an input audio waveform using a generator neural network to generate an output audio waveform. In one aspect, a method comprises: receiving an input audio waveform; processing the input audio waveform using an encoder neural network to generate a set of feature vectors representing the input audio waveform; and processing the set of feature vectors representing the input audio waveform using a decoder neural network to generate an output audio waveform that comprises a respective output audio sample for each of a plurality of output time steps.

Generating audio waveforms using encoder and decoder neural networks

Systems and methods for training a machine-learned model are provided. A method can include can include obtaining an unlabeled audio signal, sampling the unlabeled audio signal to select one or more sampled slices, inputting the one or more sampled slices into a machine-learned model, receiving, as an output of the machine-learned model, one or more determined characteristics associated with the audio signal, determining a loss function for the machine-learned model based at least in part on a difference between the one or more determined characteristics and one or more corresponding ground truth characteristics of the audio signal, and training the machine-learned model from end to end based at least in part on the loss function. The one or more determined characteristics can include one or more reconstructed portions of the audio signal temporally adjacent to the one or more sampled slices or an estimated distance between two sampled slices.
