Conformer for KsponSpeech (with Transformer LM)
This repository provides all the necessary tools to perform automatic speech recognition from an end-to-end system pretrained on KsponSpeech (Kr) within SpeechBrain. For a better experience, we encourage you to learn more about SpeechBrain. The performance of the model is the following:
Release | eval clean CER | eval other CER | GPUs |
---|---|---|---|
04-16-24 | 7.40% | 7.96% | 2xA100 40GB |
Pipeline description
This ASR system is composed of 3 different but linked blocks:
- Tokenizer (unigram) that transforms words into subword units and trained with the train transcriptions of KsponSpeech.
- Neural language model (Transformer LM) trained on the train transcriptions of KsponSpeech
- Acoustic model made of a conformer encoder and a joint decoder with CTC + transformer. Hence, the decoding also incorporates the CTC probabilities.
Install SpeechBrain
First of all, please install SpeechBrain with the following command:
!pip install git+https://github.com/speechbrain/speechbrain.git
Please notice that we encourage you to read our tutorials and learn more about SpeechBrain.
Transcribing your own audio files (in Korean)
from speechbrain.pretrained import EncoderDecoderASR
asr_model = EncoderDecoderASR.from_hparams(source="ddwkim/asr-conformer-transformerlm-ksponspeech", savedir="pretrained_models/asr-conformer-transformerlm-ksponspeech", run_opts={"device":"cuda"})
asr_model.transcribe_file("ddwkim/asr-conformer-transformerlm-ksponspeech/record_0_16k.wav")
Inference on GPU
To perform inference on the GPU, add run_opts={"device":"cuda"}
when calling the from_hparams
method.
Parallel Inference on a Batch
Please, see this Colab notebook on using the pretrained model
Training
The model was trained with SpeechBrain (Commit hash: '4b3bf60'). To train it from scratch follow these steps:
- Clone SpeechBrain:
git clone https://github.com/speechbrain/speechbrain/
- Install it:
cd speechbrain
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install .
- Run Training:
cd recipes/KsponSpeech/ASR/transformer
python train.py hparams/conformer_medium.yaml --data_folder=your_data_folder
You can find our training results (models, logs, etc) at the subdirectories.
Limitations
The SpeechBrain team does not provide any warranty on the performance achieved by this model when used on other datasets.
