About the input on ARCH benchmark #14

Thank you for your work, it's a very innovative piece of research. I have a question regarding the ARCH benchmark results (Table 5): What is the input for these results? Specifically, what is the "semantic representation"? Is it the latent space after RVQ (Residual Vector Quantization)? Or is the semantic representation the sum of the latent spaces from all eight quantizers?

Quantized semantic feature, here https://github.com/zhenye234/xcodec/blob/a2e52d30b1ea424f76bb6b88357484d8021f3ab3/models/soundstream_semantic.py#L114

@zhenye234 Thanks for your previous response! I have a couple more questions about Table 5, if you don't mind:

  1. Could you please clarify the semantic representations for DAC, Encodec, and the Baseline Acoustic Codec in Table 5?
  2. Also, I'm curious why SpeechTokenizer was excluded from the comparison?

Thanks so much for your help!
