Notice: This website is continuously updated as new conference proceedings and journal volumes are published. Consequently, the figures presented here may differ from those reported in our publications.


A brief overview of our methodology is provided on the Methods page, along with references to publications documenting our approach and links to the code and data used in each study.


The reproducibility variables underlying each score are classified using an automated LLM-based pipeline, validated against a manually labeled dataset. LLM-based classification introduces uncertainty and potential bias; scores should be interpreted as estimates.

Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental We conduct a comprehensive evaluation of Big VGAN for both in-distribution and out-of-distribution scenarios. We train Big VGAN and all baseline models on the full Libri TTS dataset. ... We report the performance of Big VGAN and the baseline models evaluated on Libri TTS using above objective and subjective metrics. ... Table 2 shows the in-distribution test results on Libri TTS. ... Table 3 summarizes the SMOS results from three different types of unseen dataset. ... Table 4 shows the SMOS results from the 5 tracks and their average from the MUSDB18-HQ test set. ... Table 5: Ablation results on training data diversity using 112M Big VGAN model, evaluated on Libri TTS.

Pseudocode No The paper provides detailed architectural diagrams and textual descriptions of the model components but does not include formal pseudocode or algorithm blocks.
Open Source Code Yes We release our code and model at: https://github.com/NVIDIA/BigVGAN.
Open Datasets Yes We use Libri TTS (Zen et al., 2019) dataset with the original sampling rate of 24 k Hz for training.
Dataset Splits Yes We perform objective evaluations on dev-clean and dev-other altogether, and conduct subjective evaluations on the combined test-clean and test-other.
Hardware Specification Yes Table 1: Model footprint and synthesis speed for 24 k Hz audio measured on an NVIDIA RTX 8000 GPU.
Software Dependencies No No specific version numbers are provided for the software dependencies mentioned, such as 'librosa', 'Auraloss', 'python-pesq', 'python-MCD', 'CARGAN' code, or 'NVIDIA Ne Mo' toolkit.
Experiment Setup Yes We train all Big VGAN models including the ablation models and the baseline Hi Fi-GAN using our training configuration for 1M steps. We use the batch size of 32, a segment size of 8,192, and a initial learning rate of 1 10 4. ... Refer to Table 6 in the Appendix A for detailed hyperparameters.
