CLAP
CLAP (Contrastive Language-Audio Pretraining) is a model that learns acoustic concepts from natural language supervision and enables “Zero-Shot” inference. The model has been extensively evaluated in 26 audio downstream tasks achieving SoTA in several of them including classification, retrieval, and captioning.
Setup
First, install python 3.8 or higher (3.11 recommended). Then, install CLAP using either of the following:
# Install pypi pacakge
pip install msclap
# Or Install latest (unstable) git source
pip install git+https://github.com/microsoft/CLAP.git
CLAP weights
CLAP weights are downloaded automatically (choose between versions 2022, 2023, and clapcap), but are also available at: Zenodo or HuggingFace
clapcap is the audio captioning model that uses the 2023 encoders.
Usage
- Zero-Shot Classification and Retrieval
from msclap import CLAP
# Load model (Choose between versions '2022' or '2023')
# The model weight will be downloaded automatically if `model_fp` is not specified
clap_model = CLAP(version = '2023', use_cuda=False)
# Extract text embeddings
text_embeddings = clap_model.get_text_embeddings(class_labels: List[str])
# Extract audio embeddings
audio_embeddings = clap_model.get_audio_embeddings(file_paths: List[str])
# Compute similarity between audio and text embeddings
similarities = clap_model.compute_similarity(audio_embeddings, text_embeddings)
- Audio Captioning
from msclap import CLAP
# Load model (Choose version 'clapcap')
clap_model = CLAP(version = 'clapcap', use_cuda=False)
# Generate audio captions
captions = clap_model.generate_caption(file_paths: List[str])
Examples
Take a look at examples for usage examples.
To run Zero-Shot Classification on the ESC50 dataset try the following:
> cd examples && python zero_shot_classification.py
Output (version 2023)
ESC50 Accuracy: 93.9%
