DashengTokenizer is a high-performance continious audio tokenizer designed for audio understanding and generation tasks.
Compared to previous works, our framework trains a **single linear layer** to enable audio generation for semantically strong encoders.

Achievements:

* **State-of-the-Art** Audio Understanding: DashengTokenizer consistently outperforms most previous self-supervised and supervised audio encoders.
* **High-Fidelity** Signal Reconstruction: Maintains exceptional signal integrity, ensuring that audio remains crisp and accurate after processing.
* Accelerated **Audio Generation** Training: Achieves optimal performance significantly faster than standard VAE models, reducing training time and costs.
* Superior **Speech Enhancement**: Provides a more robust encoding foundation for isolating and clarifying speech in noisy environments.

## Usage

### Installation

```bash
uv pip install transformers torch torchaudio einops
```

### Basic Usage

```python
import torch
import torchaudio
from transformers import AutoModel

# Load the model
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("mispeech/dashengtokenizer", trust_remote_code=True)
model.eval()

# Load audio file (only 16kHz supported!)
audio, sr = torchaudio.load("path/to/audio.wav")

# Optional: Create attention mask for variable-length inputs
# attention_mask = torch.ones(audio.shape[0], audio.shape[1])  # All ones for full audio
# attention_mask[0, 8000:] = 0  # Example: mask second half of first sample

# Method 1: End-to-end processing (encode + decode)
with torch.no_grad(), torch.autocast(device_type='cuda'):
    outputs = model(audio)  # Optionally pass attention_mask=attention_mask
    reconstructed_audio = outputs["audio"]
    embeddings = outputs['embeddings']

# Method 2: Separate encoding and decoding
with torch.no_grad(), torch.autocast(device_type='cuda'):
    # Encode audio to embeddings
    embeddings = model.encode(audio)  # Optionally pass attention_mask=attention_mask

    # Decode embeddings back to audio
    reconstructed_audio = model.decode(embeddings)

# Save reconstructed audio
torchaudio.save("reconstructed_audio.wav", reconstructed_audio, sr)
```


## Use Cases

### 1. Audio Encoding
```python
embeddings = model.encode(audio)
reconstructed = model.decode(embeddings)
```

### 2. Feature Extraction
```python
# Extract rich audio features for downstream tasks
features = model.encode(audio)
# Use features for classification, clustering, etc.
```


## Limitations

- Optimized for 16kHz mono audio
