# 🎛️ Wav2Aug: Toward Universal Time-Domain Speech Augmentation

A minimalistic PyTorch-based audio augmentation library for speech and audio augmentation. The goal of this library is to provide a general purpose speech augmentation policy that can be used on any task and perform well without having to tune augmentation hyperparameters. Just install, and start augmenting. Applies two random augmentations per call.

## ⚙️ Features

* **9 core augmentations**: amplitude scaling/clipping, noise addition, frequency dropout, polarity inversion, chunk swapping, speed perturbation, time dropout, and babble noise.
* **Simplicity**: just install and start augmenting!
* **Randomness**: all stochastic ops use PyTorch RNGs. Set a single seed and be done, e.g. torch.manual_seed(0); torch.cuda.manual_seed_all(0)

## 📦 Installation

### pip

```bash
pip install wav2aug
```

### uv

```bash
uv add wav2aug
```

## 🚀 Quick Start

```python
import torch
from wav2aug.gpu import Wav2Aug

# Initialize the augmenter once
augmenter = Wav2Aug(sample_rate=16000)

# in the forward pass
wavs = torch.randn(3, 50000)
lens = torch.ones((wavs.size(0)))

aug_wavs, aug_lens = augmenter(wavs, lens)
```

That's it!

## 🧪 Augmentation Types

* 🔊 **Amplitude Scaling/Clipping**: Random gain and peak limiting
* 🌫️ **Noise Addition**: Environmental noise with SNR control
* 📶 **Frequency Dropout**: Spectral masking with random notch filters
* 🔄 **Polarity Inversion**: Random phase flip
* 🧩 **Chunk Swapping**: Temporal segment reordering
* ⏱️ **Speed Perturbation**: Time-scale modification
* 🕳️ **Time Dropout**: Random silence insertion
* 👥 **Babble Noise**: Multi-speaker background (auto-enabled with sufficient buffer)
