  • Preliminary Investigations of Transformer Models for Bit-Domain Audio Synthesis and Timbre

    Presenter: Daniel McKemie
    Morris Hall 104

    I will be presenting on preliminary research findings of new work centered on the associations between Bit-Domain Audio Synthesis and timbre generation. Bit-Domain Audio Synthesis describes a class of techniques in which PCM audio samples are produced by closed-form integer expressions. These techniques include arithmetic and bitwise operations evaluated against an incrementing sample index. For […]
