--- license: cc-by-nc-4.0 --- # RAVE Models This is a collection of [RAVE](https://github.com/acids-ircam/RAVE) models trained by the [Intelligent Instruments Lab](https://iil.is) for various projects. For a full description see our blog post at: https://iil.is/news/ravemodels, and for more about RAVE, see the original [paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2111.05011) from IRCAM. Most of these models are encoder-decoder only, no prior, and all use the `--causal` mode and are exported for streaming inference with [nn~](https://github.com/acids-ircam/nn_tilde), [NN.ar](https://github.com/elgiano/nn.ar) or [rave-supercollider](https://github.com/victor-shepardson/rave-supercollider). In the `checkpoints/` directory are some complete checkpoints which can be used with our [fork of RAVE](https://github.com/victor-shepardson/RAVE) to speed up training by transfer learning.
