ASR Frontend

PyTorch implementation ASR frontend, like PCEN, Mel filter bank log energy.

Usage

The following is a example for using PCEN:

import pcen
import numpy as np

b, s, d = 32, 100, 40
filterbanks = np.random.uniform(low=0.5, high=13.3, size=(b, s, d))
filterbanks = torch.from_numpy(filterbanks.astype(dtype=np.float32))
trainable_pcen = pcen.Pcen(d)
pcen_features = trainable_pcen(filterbanks)
