SpeechBrain ECAPA VoxLingua107 MLX

This is a pinned, validated MLX export of `speechbrain/lang-id-voxlingua107-ecapa` for native Apple Silicon inference. It ranks 107 spoken-language labels.

Model

The runtime contract includes sentence-level mean normalization. The exporter compares an independent periodic-Hamming, symmetric-filter frontend with the official SpeechBrain implementation before accepting the weights.

Validation

The upstream card reports 6.7% error on a small 33-language development subset, not a complete test over all 107 labels. Product evaluation should use the intended languages, accents, microphones, noise, and short-utterance mix.

This is a closed-set classifier and is not an unknown-language detector. Keep the original class indexes; normalized aliases belong in application output, not in the model head.
