Solution Approach 1:

The patent transforms the audio generation problem from the time domain to the frequency domain by applying Fourier transforms. This parameter transformation allows the model to operate on spectral representations rather than raw audio waveforms, reducing the computational complexity required to generate long-duration audio files while maintaining natural music structure

Inventive Principle:

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary spectral representation layer between the input prompt and the output audio. By converting audio to frequency domain representations (spectrograms) and processing through latent space transformations, the system mediates the complex generation task through intermediate computational stages that require fewer resources than direct time-domain generation

Inventive Principle:
