	# wav2vec 2.0 with CTC trained on CommonVoice German (No LM)

	This repository provides all the necessary tools to perform automatic speech
	recognition from an end-to-end system pretrained on CommonVoice (German Language) within
	SpeechBrain. For a better experience, we encourage you to learn more about
	[SpeechBrain](https://speechbrain.github.io).

	The performance of the model is the following:

	\| Release \| Test CER \| Test WER \| GPUs \|
	\|:-------------:\|:--------------:\|:--------------:\| :--------:\|
	\| 16-08-22 \| 2.40 \| 9.54 \| 1xRTXA6000 48GB \|

	## Pipeline description

	This ASR system is composed of 2 different but linked blocks:
	- Tokenizer (char) that transforms words into chars and trained with
	the train transcriptions (train.tsv) of CommonVoice (DE).
	- Acoustic model (wav2vec2.0 + CTC). A pretrained wav2vec 2.0 model ([wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53-german](https://huggingface.co/facebook/wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53-german)) is combined with two DNN layers and finetuned on CommonVoice DE.
	The obtained final acoustic representation is given to the CTC decoder.

	The system is trained with recordings sampled at 16kHz (single channel).
	The code will automatically normalize your audio (i.e., resampling + mono channel selection) when calling transcribe_file if needed.

	## Install SpeechBrain

	First of all, please install tranformers and SpeechBrain with the following command:

	```
	pip install speechbrain transformers
	```

	Please notice that we encourage you to read our tutorials and learn more about
	[SpeechBrain](https://speechbrain.github.io).

	### Transcribing your own audio files (in German)

	```python
	from speechbrain.inference.ASR import EncoderASR

	asr_model = EncoderASR.from_hparams(source="speechbrain/asr-wav2vec2-commonvoice-de", savedir="pretrained_models/asr-wav2vec2-commonvoice-de")
	asr_model.transcribe_file("speechbrain/asr-wav2vec2-commonvoice-de/example-de.wav")

	```
	### Inference on GPU
	To perform inference on the GPU, add `run_opts={"device":"cuda"}` when calling the `from_hparams` method.

	## Parallel Inference on a Batch
	Please, [see this Colab notebook](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1hX5ZI9S4jHIjahFCZnhwwQmFoGAi3tmu?usp=sharing) to figure out how to transcribe in parallel a batch of input sentences using a pre-trained model.

	### Training
	The model was trained with SpeechBrain.
	To train it from scratch follow these steps:
	1. Clone SpeechBrain:
	```bash
	git clone https://github.com/speechbrain/speechbrain/
	```
	2. Install it:
	```bash
	cd speechbrain
	pip install -r requirements.txt
	pip install -e .
	```

	3. Run Training:
	```bash
	cd recipes/CommonVoice/ASR/seq2seq
	python train.py hparams/train_de_with_wav2vec.yaml --data_folder=your_data_folder
	```

	You can find our training results (models, logs, etc) [here](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/19G2Zm8896QSVDqVfs7PS_W86-K0-5xeC?usp=sharing).

	### Limitations
	The SpeechBrain team does not provide any warranty on the performance achieved by this model when used on other datasets.
