Speech2Text2

Overview

The Speech2Text2 model is used together with Wav2Vec2 for Speech Translation models proposed in Large-Scale Self- and Semi-Supervised Learning for Speech Translation by Changhan Wang, Anne Wu, Juan Pino, Alexei Baevski, Michael Auli, Alexis Conneau.

Speech2Text2 is a decoder-only transformer model that can be used with any speech encoder-only, such as Wav2Vec2 or HuBERT for Speech-to-Text tasks. Please refer to the SpeechEncoderDecoder class on how to combine Speech2Text2 with any speech encoder-only model.

This model was contributed by Patrick von Platen.

The original code can be found here.

Tips:

• Speech2Text2 achieves state-of-the-art results on the CoVoST Speech Translation dataset. For more information, see the official models .

• Speech2Text2 is always used within the SpeechEncoderDecoder framework.

• Speech2Text2’s tokenizer currently only supports inference, but not training.

Inference

Speech2Text2’s SpeechEncoderDecoderModel model accepts raw waveform input values from speech and makes use of generate() to translate the input speech autoregressively to the target language.

The Wav2Vec2FeatureExtractor class is responsible for preprocessing the input speech and Speech2Text2Tokenizer decodes the generated target tokens to the target string. The Speech2Text2Processor wraps Wav2Vec2FeatureExtractor and Speech2Text2Tokenizer into a single instance to both extract the input features and decode the predicted token ids.

• Step-by-step Speech Translation

>>> import torch
>>> from transformers import Speech2Text2Processor, SpeechEncoderDecoderModel
>>> from datasets import load_dataset
>>> import soundfile as sf

>>> model = SpeechEncoderDecoderModel.from_pretrained("facebook/s2t-wav2vec2-large-en-de")
>>> processor = Speech2Text2Processor.from_pretrained("facebook/s2t-wav2vec2-large-en-de")

>>> def map_to_array(batch):
...     speech, _ = sf.read(batch["file"])
...     batch["speech"] = speech
...     return batch

>>> ds = load_dataset("hf-internal-testing/librispeech_asr_dummy", "clean", split="validation")
>>> ds = ds.map(map_to_array)

>>> inputs = processor(ds["speech"][0], sampling_rate=16_000, return_tensors="pt")
>>> generated_ids = model.generate(input_ids=inputs["input_values"], attention_mask=inputs["attention_mask"])

>>> transcription = processor.batch_decode(generated_ids)

• Speech Translation via Pipelines

  The automatic speech recognition pipeline can also be used to translate speech in just a couple lines of code

>>> from datasets import load_dataset
>>> from transformers import pipeline

>>> librispeech_en = load_dataset("hf-internal-testing/librispeech_asr_dummy", "clean", split="validation")
>>> asr = pipeline("automatic-speech-recognition", model="facebook/s2t-wav2vec2-large-en-de", feature_extractor="facebook/s2t-wav2vec2-large-en-de")

>>> translation_de = asr(librispeech_en[0]["file"])

Instantiating a configuration with the defaults will yield a similar configuration to that of the Speech2Text2 facebook/s2t-small-librispeech-asr architecture.

Configuration objects inherit from PretrainedConfig and can be used to control the model outputs. Read the documentation from PretrainedConfig for more information.

Speech2Text2ForCausalLM

class transformers.Speech2Text2ForCausalLM(config)

The Speech2Text2 Decoder with a language modeling head. Can be used as the decoder part of EncoderDecoderModel and SpeechEncoderDecoder. This model inherits from PreTrainedModel. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads etc.)

This model is also a PyTorch torch.nn.Module subclass. Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

Parameters

config (Speech2Text2Config) – Model configuration class with all the parameters of the model. Initializing with a config file does not load the weights associated with the model, only the configuration. Check out the from_pretrained() method to load the model weights.

forward(input_ids=None, attention_mask=None, encoder_hidden_states=None, encoder_attention_mask=None, head_mask=None, cross_attn_head_mask=None, past_key_values=None, inputs_embeds=None, labels=None, use_cache=None, output_attentions=None, output_hidden_states=None, return_dict=None)

Args:

input_ids (torch.LongTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length)):

Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary. Padding will be ignored by default should you provide it.

Indices can be obtained using Speech2Text2Tokenizer. See transformers.PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and transformers.PreTrainedTokenizer.__call__() for details.

What are input IDs?

attention_mask (torch.Tensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length), optional):

Mask to avoid performing attention on padding token indices. Mask values selected in [0, 1]:

• 1 for tokens that are not masked,

• 0 for tokens that are masked.

What are attention masks?

encoder_hidden_states (torch.FloatTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size), optional):

Sequence of hidden-states at the output of the last layer of the encoder. Used in the cross-attention if the model is configured as a decoder.

encoder_attention_mask (torch.FloatTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length), optional):

Mask to avoid performing attention on the padding token indices of the encoder input. This mask is used in the cross-attention if the model is configured as a decoder. Mask values selected in [0, 1]:

head_mask (torch.Tensor of shape (decoder_layers, decoder_attention_heads), optional):

Mask to nullify selected heads of the attention modules. Mask values selected in [0, 1]:

• 1 indicates the head is not masked,

• 0 indicates the head is masked.

cross_attn_head_mask (torch.Tensor of shape (decoder_layers, decoder_attention_heads), optional):

Mask to nullify selected heads of the cross-attention modules. Mask values selected in [0, 1]:

• 1 indicates the head is not masked,

• 0 indicates the head is masked.

past_key_values (tuple(tuple(torch.FloatTensor)), optional, returned when use_cache=True is passed or when config.use_cache=True):

Tuple of tuple(torch.FloatTensor) of length config.n_layers, with each tuple having 2 tensors of shape (batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length, embed_size_per_head)) and 2 additional tensors of shape (batch_size, num_heads, encoder_sequence_length, embed_size_per_head). The two additional tensors are only required when the model is used as a decoder in a Sequence to Sequence model.

Contains pre-computed hidden-states (key and values in the self-attention blocks and in the cross-attention blocks) that can be used (see past_key_values input) to speed up sequential decoding.

If past_key_values are used, the user can optionally input only the last decoder_input_ids (those that don’t have their past key value states given to this model) of shape (batch_size, 1) instead of all decoder_input_ids of shape (batch_size, sequence_length).

labels (torch.LongTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length), optional):

Labels for computing the masked language modeling loss. Indices should either be in [0, ..., config.vocab_size] or -100 (see input_ids docstring). Tokens with indices set to -100 are ignored (masked), the loss is only computed for the tokens with labels in [0, ..., config.vocab_size].

use_cache (bool, optional):

If set to True, past_key_values key value states are returned and can be used to speed up decoding (see past_key_values).
