Denoising concert recordings

Objective: remove noise from single-channel recordings of concerts without access to an original recording. Weak labels come in the form of segments of audio labeled as "noise only" or "noise and signal."

Currently working on

• Save models/plots/recordings more often
• Code to import model parameters from .npz files
• Characterize distortion using a trained model on sine waves/chirps
• Save specgram, time domain, and latent var plots
• Organized folder structure based on parameters/date
• Early stopping
• Try a deeper network (more conv layers, maybe fully connected layers at the output)
• Output the network in the time domain, modify loss function to do MSE on the time domain signal
