Abstract: In this study, we explore the use of Vector Quantized Variational Autoencoders (VQ-VAE) for real-time audio spectrogram inpainting, with a focus on minimizing environmental impact. We ...

Abstract: In this paper, we propose an audio spectrogram transformer (AST) for sequential inference and evaluate its real- time performance. ASTs are pre-trained in a self-supervised manner, such as ...

Researchers discovered a fingerprint on Scandinavia’s oldest plank boat, used by seaborne raiders over 2,000 years ago. The print was left in the caulking tar by one of the boat’s makers. Experts ...
