ConsistencyTTA: Accelerating Diffusion-Based Text-to-Audio Generation with Consistency Distillation
Yatong Bai Trung Dang Dung Tran Kazuhito Koishida Somayeh Sojoudi

This demonstration page presents the generations from 50 randomly selected prompts from the AudioCaps test set.

We present four audio sources: the consistency model fine-tuned with CLAP, the consistency model without CLAP-fine-tuning, the diffusion baseline model, and the ground truth.

The diffusion baseline queries the neural network 400 times per audio clip, while the consistency models query a same-sized network only one time.

Since the models are not trained on speech data, we do not expect them to produce meaningful speeches.
