181
+
182
+
183
+ `parakeet-tdt-1.1b` is an ASR model that transcribes speech in lower case English alphabet. This model is jointly developed by [NVIDIA NeMo](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NeMo) and [Suno.ai](https://www.suno.ai/) teams.
184
+ It is an XXL version of FastConformer [1] TDT [2] (around 1.1B parameters) model.
185
+ See the [model architecture](#model-architecture) section and [NeMo documentation](https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/nemo/user-guide/docs/en/main/asr/models.html#fast-conformer) for complete architecture details.
186
+
187
+ ## NVIDIA NeMo: Training
188
+
189
+ To train, fine-tune or play with the model you will need to install [NVIDIA NeMo](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NeMo). We recommend you install it after you've installed latest PyTorch version.
190
+ ```
191
+ pip install nemo_toolkit['all']
192
+ ```
193
+
194
+ ## How to Use this Model
195
+
196
+ The model is available for use in the NeMo toolkit [3], and can be used as a pre-trained checkpoint for inference or for fine-tuning on another dataset.
197
+
198
+ ### Automatically instantiate the model
199
+
200
+ ```python
201
+ import nemo.collections.asr as nemo_asr
202
+ asr_model = nemo_asr.models.EncDecRNNTBPEModel.from_pretrained(model_name="nvidia/parakeet-tdt-1.1b")
203
+ ```
204
+
205
+ ### Transcribing using Python
206
+ First, let's get a sample
207
+ ```
208
+ wget https://dldata-public.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/2086-149220-0033.wav
209
+ ```
210
+ Then simply do:
211
+ ```
212
+ asr_model.transcribe(['2086-149220-0033.wav'])
213
+ ```
214
+
215
+ ### Transcribing many audio files
216
+
217
+ ```shell
218
+ python [NEMO_GIT_FOLDER]/examples/asr/transcribe_speech.py
219
+ pretrained_name="nvidia/parakeet-tdt-1.1b"
220
+ audio_dir="<DIRECTORY CONTAINING AUDIO FILES>"
221
+ ```
222
+
223
+ ### Input
224
+
225
+ This model accepts 16000 Hz mono-channel audio (wav files) as input.
226
+
227
+ ### Output
228
+
229
+ This model provides transcribed speech as a string for a given audio sample.
230
+
231
+ ## Model Architecture
232
+
233
+ This model uses a FastConformer-TDT architecture. FastConformer [1] is an optimized version of the Conformer model with 8x depthwise-separable convolutional downsampling. You may find more information on the details of FastConformer here: [Fast-Conformer Model](https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/nemo/user-guide/docs/en/main/asr/models.html#fast-conformer).
234
+
235
+ TDT (Token-and-Duration Transducer) [2] is a generalization of conventional Transducers by decoupling token and duration predictions. Unlike conventional Transducers which produces a lot of blanks during inference, a TDT model can skip majority of blank predictions by using the duration output (up to 4 frames for this parakeet-tdt-1.1b model), thus brings significant inference speed-up. The detail of TDT can be found here: [Efficient Sequence Transduction by Jointly Predicting Tokens and Durations](https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.06795).
236
+
237
+ ## Training
238
+
239
+ 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/asr_transducer/speech_to_text_rnnt_bpe.py) and this [base config](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NeMo/blob/main/examples/asr/conf/fastconformer/fast-conformer_transducer_bpe.yaml).
240
+
241
+ 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).
242
+
243
+ ### Datasets
244
+
245
+ The model was trained on 64K hours of English speech collected and prepared by NVIDIA NeMo and Suno teams.
246
+
247
+ The training dataset consists of private subset with 40K hours of English speech plus 24K hours from the following public datasets:
248
+
249
+ - Librispeech 960 hours of English speech
250
+ - Fisher Corpus
251
+ - Switchboard-1 Dataset
252
+ - WSJ-0 and WSJ-1
253
+ - National Speech Corpus (Part 1, Part 6)
254
+ - VCTK
255
+ - VoxPopuli (EN)
256
+ - Europarl-ASR (EN)
257
+ - Multilingual Librispeech (MLS EN) - 2,000 hour subset
258
+ - Mozilla Common Voice (v7.0)
259
+ - People's Speech - 12,000 hour subset
260
+
261
+ ## Performance
262
+
263
+ The performance of Automatic Speech Recognition models is measuring using Word Error Rate. Since this dataset is trained on multiple domains and a much larger corpus, it will generally perform better at transcribing audio in general.
264
+
265
+ The following tables summarizes the performance of the available models in this collection with the Transducer decoder. Performances of the ASR models are reported in terms of Word Error Rate (WER%) with greedy decoding.
266
+
267
+ |**Version**|**Tokenizer**|**Vocabulary Size**|**AMI**|**Earnings-22**|**Giga Speech**|**LS test-clean**|**SPGI Speech**|**TEDLIUM-v3**|**Vox Populi**|**Common Voice**|
268
+ |---------|-----------------------|-----------------|---------------|---------------|------------|-----------|-----|-------|------|------|
269
+ | 1.22.0 | SentencePiece Unigram | 1024 | 15.90 | 14.65 | 9.55 | 1.39 | 2.62 | 3.42 | 3.56 | 5.48 | 5.97 |
270
+
271
+ These are greedy WER numbers without external LM. More details on evaluation can be found at [HuggingFace ASR Leaderboard](https://huggingface.co/spaces/hf-audio/open_asr_leaderboard)
272
+
273
+ ## NVIDIA Riva: Deployment
274
+
275
+ [NVIDIA Riva](https://developer.nvidia.com/riva), is an accelerated speech AI SDK deployable on-prem, in all clouds, multi-cloud, hybrid, on edge, and embedded.
276
+ Additionally, Riva provides:
277
+

+ * World-class out-of-the-box accuracy for the most common languages with model checkpoints trained on proprietary data with hundreds of thousands of GPU-compute hours
279
+ * Best in class accuracy with run-time word boosting (e.g., brand and product names) and customization of acoustic model, language model, and inverse text normalization
280
+ * Streaming speech recognition, Kubernetes compatible scaling, and enterprise-grade support
281
+
282
+ Although this model isn’t supported yet by Riva, the [list of supported models is here](https://huggingface.co/models?other=Riva).
