Introduction

How to clone this repo

sudo apt-get install git-lfs
git clone https://huggingface.co/csukuangfj/icefall-asr-librispeech-transducer-stateless-bpe-500-2021-12-27


cd icefall-asr-librispeech-transducer-stateless-bpe-500-2021-12-27
git lfs pull

Catuion: You have to run git lfs pull. Otherwise, you will be SAD later.

The model in this repo is trained using the commit 14c93add507982306f5a478cd144e0e32e0f970d.

You can use

git clone https://github.com/k2-fsa/icefall
cd icefall
git checkout 14c93add507982306f5a478cd144e0e32e0f970d

to download icefall.

You can find the model information by visiting <https://github.com/k2-fsa/icefall/blob/14c93add507982306f5a478cd144e0e32e0f970d/egs/librispeech/ASR/transducer_stateless/train.py#L198>.

In short, the encoder is a Conformer model with 8 heads, 12 encoder layers, 512-dim attention, 2048-dim feedforward; the decoder contains a 1024-dim embedding layer and a Conv1d with kernel size 2.

The decoder architecture is modified from Rnn-Transducer with Stateless Prediction Network. A Conv1d layer is placed right after the input embedding layer.

Description

This repo provides pre-trained transducer Conformer model for the LibriSpeech dataset using [icefall][icefall]. There are no RNNs in the decoder. The decoder is stateless and contains only an embedding layer and a Conv1d.

The commands for training are:

cd egs/librispeech/ASR/
./prepare.sh
export CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES="0,1,2,3"
./transducer_stateless/train.py \
  --world-size 4 \
  --num-epochs 30 \
  --start-epoch 0 \
  --exp-dir transducer_stateless/exp-full \
  --full-libri 1 \
  --max-duration 250 \
  --lr-factor 3

The tensorboard training log can be found at <https://tensorboard.dev/experiment/Mjx7MeTgR3Oyr1yBCwjozw/>

The command for decoding is:

epoch=29
avg=13

## greedy search
./transducer_stateless/decode.py \
  --epoch $epoch \
  --avg $avg \
  --exp-dir transducer_stateless/exp-full \
  --bpe-model ./data/lang_bpe_500/bpe.model \
  --max-duration 100

## beam search
./transducer_stateless/decode.py \
  --epoch $epoch \
  --avg $avg \
  --exp-dir transducer_stateless/exp-full \
  --bpe-model ./data/lang_bpe_500/bpe.model \
  --max-duration 100 \
  --decoding-method beam_search \
  --beam-size 4

You can find the decoding log for the above command in this repo (in the folder log).

The WERs for the test datasets are

File description

• —[log][log], this directory contains the decoding log and decoding results
• —[testwavs][testwavs], this directory contains wave files for testing the pre-trained model
• —[data][data], this directory contains files generated by [prepare.sh][prepare]
• —[exp][exp], this directory contains only one file: preprained.pt

exp/pretrained.pt is generated by the following command:

./transducer_stateless/export.py \
  --epoch 29 \
  --avg 13 \
  --bpe-model data/lang_bpe_500/bpe.model \
  --exp-dir transducer_stateless/exp-full

HINT: To use pre-trained.pt to compute the WER for test-clean and test-other, just do the following:

cp icefall-asr-librispeech-transducer-stateless-bpe-500-2021-12-27/exp/pretrained.pt \
  /path/to/icefall/egs/librispeech/ASR/transducer_stateless/exp/epoch-999.pt

and pass --epoch 999 --avg 1 to transducer_stateless/decode.py.
