Finetuning causes Errors

[vikraman22]

I'm trying to finetune the US English Model using this script finetune mentioned in the acoustic model adaptation documentation, but this causes a lot of errors like this one as they didn't specify the required files for finetuning.

Traceback (most recent call last): File "steps/nnet3/train_dnn.py", line 459, in main train(args, run_opts) File "steps/nnet3/train_dnn.py", line 216, in train "{1}".format(str(e), '{0}/configs'.format(args.dir))) Exception: KeyError 'model_left_context': Variables need to be defined in exp/nnet3/tdnn_sp_finetune/configs

How do I solve this error? Initially the configs directory was missing and it caused this error and I manually created the configs directory.

Exception: Either --trainer.input-model option should be supplied, and exist; or the exp/nnet3/tdnn_sp_finetune/configs directory should exist. exp/nnet3/tdnn_sp_finetune/configs is the output of make_configs.py
Is there any contents that I can look into so that I can add the required files prior to exceptions.

Hi

It is the same issue as #185, no need to create a new issue about it, you can comment there. In general you need to understand what you are doing.
