# Brouhaha: multi-task training for voice activity detection, speech-to-noise ratio, and C50 room acoustics estimation (2023)

![](doc/brouhaha.png)

Here's the companion repository of [*Brouhaha*](https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.13248).
You'll find the instructions to install and run our pretrained model. Given an audio segment, Brouhaha extracts:
- Speech/non-speech segments
- Speech-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) , that measures the speech level compared to the noise level
- C50, that measures to which extent the environment is reverberant

You can listen to some audio samples we generated to train the model [here](https://marvinlvn.github.io/projects/1_project/).

If you want to dig further, you'll also find the instructions to run the audio contamination pipeline, and retrain a model from scratch.

### Installation

```
# clone brouhaha
git clone https://github.com/marianne-m/brouhaha-vad.git
cd brouhaha-vad

# creating a conda environment
conda create -n brouhaha python=3.8
conda activate brouhaha

# install brouhaha
pip install .
```

Depending on the environment you're running the model in, it may be necessary to install libsndfile with the following command:
```
conda install -c conda-forge libsndfile
```

### Extract predictions

```
python brouhaha/main.py apply \
--data_dir path/to/data \
--out_dir path/to/predictions \
--model_path models/best/checkpoints/best.ckpt \
--ext wav
```

2) [Train your own model](./doc/training.md)
