AGC (Audiogen Codec) is a convolutional autoencoder based on the DAC architecture, which holds SOTA. We found that training with EMA and adding a perceptual loss term with CLAP features improved performance. These codecs, being low compression, outperform Meta's EnCodec and DAC on general audio as validated from internal blind ELO games. We trained (relatively) very low compression codecs in the pursuit of solving a core issue regarding general music and audio generation, low acoustic quality, and audible artifacts, which hinder industry use for these models. ...

...Its architecture incorporates a broader vector-quantization space, extended contextual windows, and improved attention networks, combined with multi-scale discriminators and inverse Fourier transform blocks to enhance waveform reconstruction. Extensive experiments show that WavTokenizer matches or surpasses previous neural codecs across speech, music, and general audio on both objective metrics and subjective listening tests.

...On top of a Parquet schema, petastorm also stores higher-level schema information that makes multidimensional arrays into a native part of a petastorm dataset. Petastorm supports extensible data codecs. These enable a user to use one of the standard data compressions (jpeg, png) or implement her own.

...It achieves state-of-the-art results: across 36 audio and audio-visual benchmarks, it hits open-source SOTA on 32 and overall SOTA on 22, outperforming or matching strong closed-source models such as Gemini-2.5 Pro and GPT-4o. To reduce latency, especially in audio/video streaming, Talker predicts discrete speech codecs via a multi-codebook scheme and replaces heavier diffusion approaches.
