Model Details

Wav2Vec2 model with linear projection to CTC blank token + 101 phone symbols from the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). The model uses 16 kHz audio to predict the most probable sequence of uttered IPA phones.

Model Description

This model was created to analyze pathological speech signals. It was optimized with Common Phone, a multilingual corpus for robust acoustic modelling. It comprises more than 11.000 speakers which were carefully selected from Mozilla's Common Voice dataset. Results in terms of phone error rate (PER) in percent:

Language	Test PER
English	11.0
French	9.9
German	9.8
Italian	9.1
Russian	6.6
Spanish	8.8
Average	9.2
