New research paper details LETHE, a GAN-inspired sonic oblivion system

A new research paper introduces LETHE, a self-referential system designed for sonic oblivion and implemented in SuperCollider. This architecture draws inspiration from Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) but operates in a closed loop without external datasets or supervision after its initial setup. LETHE processes audio through a mixing matrix and delay lines, with its parameters evolving via a linear discriminator and a random-perturbation optimizer. The system's effectiveness in driving parametric evolution was demonstrated through ablation studies. AI

    Memory as transformation: LETHE, a self-referential gan-inspired architecture

    arXiv:2609.04289v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LETHE (Latent-parameter Evolution with Temporal Hierarchical quasi-Equilibrium) is a self-referential sonic-oblivion system implemented in SuperCollider. It adopts the formal vocabulary of Generative Adversarial Networks in a closed…
