Phase Shuffle is a technique for removing pitched noise artifacts that come from using transposed convolutions in audio generation models. Phase shuffle is an operation with hyperparameter . It randomly perturbs the phase of each layer’s activations by − to samples before input to the next layer.
In the original application in WaveGAN, the authors only apply phase shuffle to the discriminator, as the latent vector already provides the generator a mechanism to manipulate the phase of a resultant waveform. Intuitively speaking, phase shuffle makes the discriminator’s job more challenging by requiring invariance to the phase of the input waveform.
