Neural waveform models such as WaveNet have demonstrated better performance than conventional vocoders for statistical parametric speech synthesis. As an autoregressive (AR) model, WaveNet is limited by a slow sequential waveform generation process. Some new models that use the inverse-autoregressive flow (IAF) can gen…
Neural waveform models such as the WaveNet are used in many recent text-to-speech systems, but the original WaveNet is quite slow in waveform generation because of its autoregressive (AR) structure. Although faster non-AR models were recently reported, they may be prohibitively complicated due to the use of a distillin…

Realistic music generation is a challenging task. When building generative models of music that are learnt from data, typically high-level representations such as scores or MIDI are used that abstract away the idiosyncrasies of a particular performance. But these nuances are very important for our perception of musical…
