Ircam, one of the partners of the DAFNE+ Project is going to celebarate a webinar in which they will explain the project but also they will show the attendants how to mint a content in DAFNE+ Platform. This workshop will take place on December, 11th, 2024 at 12:00 UTC+1 via zoom.

The aim of this webinar is not only show how to use the platform but also to introduce their contest RAVE, which is an artistic challenge.

The aim of this challenge is to support the authors of the best models and collectively establish a repertoire of RAVE models, enabling everyone to benefit from the richness and variety of approaches in the field of timbre/music transfer.

RAVE (Real-Time Audio Variational Auto-Encoder) is an algorithm designed to synthesize high-quality audio waveforms in real time using neural networks. It exploits a variational autoencoder (VAE) architecture, which compresses audio data into a compact latent representation, enabling efficient reconstruction of audio signals.
