🐧Pengi: An Audio Language Model for Audio Tasks

[Paper] [Checkpoints]

Pengi is an Audio Language Model that leverages Transfer Learning by framing all audio tasks as text-generation tasks. It takes as input, an audio recording, and text, and generates free-form text as output. The unified architecture of Pengi enables open-ended tasks and close-ended tasks without any additional fine-tuning or task-specific extensions.

Setup

You are required to install the dependencies: pip install -r requirements.txt. If you have conda installed, you can run the following:

cd Pengi && \
conda create -n pengi python=3.8 && \
conda activate pengi && \
pip install -r requirements.txt

Move the base.pth and base_no_text_enc.pth under configs folder

Supported models

pengi_1-main_arch The wrapper supports two models. The base option is Pengi architecture reported in paper and shown above. The base_no_text_enc is the Pengi architecture without the text encoder and only $m_2$ to encode tokenized text. All models only support 44.1 kHz input audio.

Usage

The wrapper provides an easy way to get Pengi output given and audio and text input. To use the wrapper, inputs required are:

config: Choose between "base" or "base_no_text_enc"
audio_file_paths: List of audio file paths for inference
text_prompts: List of input text prompts corresponding to each of the files in audio_file_paths. Example: ["generate metadata", "generate metadata"]. Refer to Table 1 and 11 for prompts and performance in paper. The default recommendation is to "generate metadata" prompt
add_texts: List of additional text corresponding to each of the files in audio_file_paths and prompt in prompts. This is used additional text input user can provide to guide GPT2.

Supported functions:

generate: Produces text response for the given audio file and text prompts
describe: Produces text description of the given audio file by concatenating the concatenating output of predefined text prompts
get_audio_embeddings: Load list of audio files and return audio prefix and audio embeddings
get_prompt_embeddings: Load list of text prompts and return prompt prefix and embeddings

Text generation

from wrapper import PengiWrapper as Pengi

pengi = Pengi(config="<choice of config>")

generated_response = pengi.generate(audio_paths=audio_file_paths,
                                    text_prompts=["generate metadata"], 
                                    add_texts=[""], 
                                    max_len=30, 
                                    beam_size=3, 
                                    temperature=1.0, 
                                    stop_token=' <|endoftext|>'
                                    )

Audio description

from wrapper import PengiWrapper as Pengi

pengi = Pengi(config="<choice of config>")

generated_summary = pengi.describe(audio_paths=audio_file_paths,
                                    max_len=30, 
                                    beam_size=3, 
                                    temperature=1.0, 
                                    stop_token=' <|endoftext|>'
                                    )

Generate audio, audio prefix and prompt embeddings

audio_prefix, audio_embeddings = pengi.get_audio_embeddings(audio_paths=audio_file_paths)

text_prefix, text_embeddings = pengi.get_prompt_embeddings(prompts=["generate metadata"])
