Mimi codec's semantic tokens linked to phonetic realizations

Researchers have investigated the Mimi codec, a component of the Moshi language model, focusing on its 2048-token semantic codebook. Their findings indicate that standard ABX experiments are insufficient for understanding the relationship between semantic tokens and their phonetic realizations. By aligning Mimi representations with TIMIT corpus transcriptions, the study demonstrates that these semantic tokens correspond to various phonetic units, including quadphones, triphones, biphones, phones, and subphones.

    Using the Mimi codec for metalinguistic representations

    arXiv:2608.15799v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this paper, we focus on the dictionary of 2048 tokens used in Mimi semantic token codebook, the neural codec of the Moshi language model. We show that the ABX experiment carried out with Mimi fails to capture the mapping of the s…
