## Model Overview
|
26 |
|
27 |
+
This collection contains large size versions of Conformer-CTC (around 120M parameters) trained on ULCA & Europal with around ~2900 hours. The model transcribes speech in Hindi characters along with spaces for Hinglish speech.
|
28 |
|
29 |
+
## Model Architecture
|
30 |
|
31 |
+
Conformer-CTC model is a non-autoregressive variant of Conformer model for Automatic Speech Recognition which uses CTC loss/decoding instead of Transducer. You may find more info on the detail of this model [here](https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/nemo/user-guide/docs/en/main/asr/models.html).
|
32 |
|
33 |
+
## Training
|
34 |
|
35 |
+
The NeMo toolkit [3] was used for training the models for over several hundred epochs. These model are trained with [this example script](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NeMo/blob/main/examples/asr/speech_to_text_bpe.py) and [this base config](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NeMo/blob/main/examples/asr/conf/conformer/conformer_ctc_bpe.yaml).
|
36 |
|
37 |
+
The tokenizers for these models were built using the text transcripts of the train set with [this script](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NeMo/blob/main/scripts/tokenizers/process_asr_text_tokenizer.py).
|
38 |
|
39 |
+
The checkpoint of the language model used as the neural rescorer.
|
40 |
|
41 |
+
### Datasets
|
42 |
|
43 |
+
All the models in this collection are trained on Hindi labelled dataset (~2900 hrs):
|
44 |
|
45 |
+
- ULCA Hindi Corpus
|
46 |
+
- Europal Dataset
|
