WaveNet-Style Guitar Amplifier Model Pruning for Real-Time iOS Deployment
WaveNet-style convolutional networks emulate tube amplifiers and distortion pedals with high fidelity, but their computational cost has confined them to desktops or dedicated DSP hardware. We present a sparse-enabled WaveNet inference engine for iOS that runs heavily pruned neura…
