Field	Response
Intended Application & Domain:	Generating waveform from mel spectrogram.
Model Type:	Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)
Intended Users:	This model is intended for developers to synthesize and generate waveforms from the AI-generated mel spectrograms.
Output:	Audio Waveform
Describe how the model works:	Model generates audio waveform corresponding to the input mel spectrogram.
Name the adversely impacted groups this has been tested to deliver comparable outcomes regardless of:	Not Applicable
Technical Limitations:	This may not perform well on synthetically-generated mel spectrograms that deviate significantly from the profile of mel spectrograms on which this was trained.
Verified to have met prescribed NVIDIA quality standards:	Yes
Performance Metrics:	Perceptual Evaluation of Speech Quality (PESQ), Virtual Speech Quality Objective Listener (VISQOL), Multi-resolution STFT (MRSTFT), Mel cepstral distortion (MCD), Periodicity RMSE, Voice/Unvoiced F1 Score (V/UV F1)
Potential Known Risks:	This model may generate low-quality or distorted soundwaves.
