https://huggingface.co/nvidia/NVIDIA-NemotronLabs-RE-USE#model-overviewModel Overview

https://huggingface.co/nvidia/NVIDIA-NemotronLabs-RE-USE#descriptionDescription:

NVIDIA NemotronLabs RE-USE is a 9.6-million-parameter**multilingual universal speech enhancement (USE)**model designed to restore speech quality across a wide range of real-world degradations while preserving speech fidelity. It has the following desirable properties:

  • Robustness todiverse degradations, including additive noise, reverberation, clipping, bandwidth limitation, codec artifacts, packet loss and low-quality mics.
  • Support formultiple input sampling rates, including 8, 16, 22.05, 24, 32, 44.1, and 48 kHz.
  • Stronglanguage-agnosticcapability, enabling effective performance across different languages.
  • If better laughter preservation is desired, please use:NVIDIA-NemotronLabs-RE-USE-laughter.

(Note: For overlapping speech, this model is trained to preserve the main speaker while suppressing other speakers.)

NVIDIA NemotronLabs RE-USE was developed by NVIDIA as a part of RE-USE.

This model is ready for commercial use.

https://huggingface.co/nvidia/NVIDIA-NemotronLabs-RE-USE#environment-setupEnvironment Setup

  1. (ForMambasetup)Pre-built Docker environments can be downloadedhereto simplifyMambasetup.
  2. If you need bandwidth extension:
pip install resampy
  1. Download and navigate to the HuggingFace repository:
huggingface-cli download nvidia/NVIDIA-NemotronLabs-RE-USE  --local-dir ./NemotronLabs_REUSE --local-dir-use-symlinks False
cd ./NemotronLabs_REUSE

https://huggingface.co/nvidia/NVIDIA-NemotronLabs-RE-USE#inferenceInference

Follow the simple steps below to generate enhanced speech using our model:

  1. Place your noisy speech files in the foldernoisy\_audio/
  2. Run the following command:
sh inference.sh
  1. The enhanced speech files will be saved inenhanced\_audio/.

That’s all !

Note:

a. You can enable bandwidth extension by setting the target bandwidth using theBWE argumentin the script.


If your noisy speech files are**long (e.g., >30s, compared to our training data, which consists of clips < 10s)**or cause GPU out-of-memory (OOM) errors, please use the following procedure instead:

  1. Place your long noisy speech files in the folderlong\_noisy\_audio/
  2. Run the following command:
sh inference_chunk.sh
  1. The enhanced speech files will be saved inLong\_enhanced\_audio/.

Note:

a. You can also configure thechunk\_size\_in\_secondsandhop\_length\_portiondirectly in the script.
