This model is a fine-tuned version of [Wav2Vec2-XLS-R-300M](https://huggingface.co/facebook/wav2vec2-xls-r-300m) on the `zh-HK` subset of the [Common Voice](https://huggingface.co/datasets/common_voice) dataset. This model was trained using HuggingFace's PyTorch framework and is part of the [Robust Speech Challenge Event](https://discuss.huggingface.co/t/open-to-the-community-robust-speech-recognition-challenge/13614) organized by HuggingFace. All training was done on a Tesla V100, sponsored by OVH. All necessary scripts used for training could be found in the [Files and versions](https://huggingface.co/w11wo/wav2vec2-xls-r-300m-zh-HK-v2/tree/main) tab, as well as the [Training metrics](https://huggingface.co/w11wo/wav2vec2-xls-r-300m-zh-HK-v2/tensorboard) logged via Tensorboard. ## Model | Model | #params | Arch. | Training/Validation data (text) | | ------------------------------ | ------- | ----- | ------------------------------- | | `wav2vec2-xls-r-300m-zh-HK-v2` | 300M | XLS-R | `Common Voice zh-HK` Dataset | ## Evaluation Results The model achieves the following results on evaluation: | Dataset | Loss | CER | | -------------------------------- | ------ | ------ | | `Common Voice` | 0.8089 | 31.73% | | `Common Voice 7` | N/A | 23.11% | | `Common Voice 8` | N/A | 23.02% | | `Robust Speech Event -
