# stt_is_quartznet15x5_ft_ep56_875h

**NOTE! This model was trained with the NeMo version: nemo-toolkit==1.10.0**

The "stt_is_quartznet15x5_ft_ep56_875h" is an acoustic model created with NeMo which is suitable for Automatic Speech Recognition in Icelandic. 

It is the result of fine-tuning the model ["QuartzNet15x5Base-En.nemo"](https://catalog.ngc.nvidia.com/orgs/nvidia/models/nemospeechmodels/files) with around 875 hours of Icelandic data developed by the [Language and Voice Laboratory](https://huggingface.co/language-and-voice-lab). Most of the data is available at public repositories such as [LDC](https://www.ldc.upenn.edu/) or [OpenSLR](https://openslr.org/)

The specific list of corpora used to fine-tune the model is:

- [Samrómur 21.05 (114h34m)](http://www.openslr.org/112/)
- [Samrómur Children (127h25m)](https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/LDC2022S11)
- [Malrómur (119hh03m)](https://clarin.is/en/resources/malromur/)
- [Althingi Parliamentary Speech (514h29m)](https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/LDC2021S01)
	
The fine-tuning process was perform during September (2022) in the servers of the Language and Voice Laboratory (https://lvl.ru.is/) at Reykjavík University (Iceland) by Carlos Daniel Hernández Mena.
