(Beta) Batch support and filter bank support
torchaudio.functional.lfilter now supports batch processing and multiple filters.
(Prototype) Emformer Module
Automatic speech recognition (ASR) research and productization have increasingly focused on on-device applications. Towards supporting such efforts, TorchAudio now includes Emformer, a memory-efficient transformer architecture that has achieved state-of-the-art results on LibriSpeech in low-latency streaming scenarios, as a prototype feature.
Please refer to the documentation for more details.
GPU Build
GPU builds that support custom CUDA kernels in TorchAudio, like the one being used for RNN transducer loss, have been added. Following this change, TorchAudio’s binary distribution now includes CPU-only versions and CUDA-enabled versions. To use CUDA-enabled binaries, PyTorch also needs to be compatible with CUDA.
