## Phonological Tokenizer: Prosody-Aware Phonetic Token via Multi-Objective Fine-Tuning with Differentiable K-Means

[[paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2601.19781)] [[demo](https://ondatk68.github.io/onda-demo/projects/phonological-tokenizer/)]

![arch](./arch.png)

Phonological Tokenizer is a single-codebook speech tokenizer that encodes linguistic and prosodic information. The tokenizer has intermediate properties between phonetic tokens and acoustic tokens.

This tokenizer is obtained by fine-tuning the phonetic tokens derived from an SSL model (wavlm-large) using differentiable k-means  in a multi-task manner with ASR and speech reconstruction. In this repository, we release the fine-tuned SSL model and cluster centroids, along with simple inference code.

For more details, please refer to [our paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2601.19781).

### Usage
```
git clone https://huggingface.co/Sony/Phonological-Tokenizer
cd Phonological-Tokenizer
