Mel Spectrogram Feature Extraction With Augmentation

via “declarative audio feature extraction and augmentation pipeline”

PyTorch toolkit for all speech processing tasks.

Unique: Integrates feature extraction and augmentation as declarative pipeline components accessible via `self.hparams`, enabling on-the-fly computation on GPU with automatic train/validation mode switching. Unlike pre-computed feature approaches, this avoids storage overhead and enables dynamic augmentation; unlike manual feature computation, this requires no boilerplate code.

vs others: Faster than pre-computing features to disk (no I/O bottleneck), more flexible than fixed feature extractors, and automatically handles train/validation mode switching without explicit code.

Unique: Applies SpecAugment (time and frequency masking) during training to improve robustness to acoustic variability without requiring additional training data. Uses learnable mel-frequency scaling to adapt to different audio characteristics.

vs others: More robust than raw waveform or MFCC features for neural models; faster to compute than constant-Q transform; standard representation enabling transfer learning from pre-trained models.
