SwiftAudio: Data-Efficient Caption-Only Distillation for One-Step Text-to-Audio Diffusion-based Generation

Diffusion-based text-to-audio (TTA) models achieve impressive synthesis quality but suffer from high inference latency due to iterative multi-step denoising. Existing one-step approaches alleviate this issue but still rely on paired text--audio data during distillation. To address these limitations,...
