+Export model.state_dict()
+=========================
+
+When to use it
+--------------
+
+During model training, we save checkpoints periodically to disk.
+
+A checkpoint contains the following information:
+
+  - ``model.state_dict()``
+  - ``optimizer.state_dict()``
+  - and some other information related to training
+
+When we need to resume the training process from some point, we need a checkpoint.
+However, if we want to publish the model for inference, then only
+``model.state_dict()`` is needed. In this case, we need to strip all other information
+except ``model.state_dict()`` to reduce the file size of the published model.
+
+How to export
+-------------
+
+Every recipe contains a file ``export.py`` that you can use to
+export ``model.state_dict()`` by taking some checkpoints as inputs.
+
+.. hint::
+
+   Each ``export.py`` contains well-documented usage information.
+
+In the following, we use
+`<https://github.com/k2-fsa/icefall/blob/master/egs/librispeech/ASR/pruned_transducer_stateless3/export.py>`_
+as an example.
+
+.. note::
+
+   The steps for other recipes are almost the same.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+  cd egs/librispeech/ASR
+
+  ./pruned_transducer_stateless3/export.py \
+    --exp-dir ./pruned_transducer_stateless3/exp \
+    --bpe-model data/lang_bpe_500/bpe.model \
+    --epoch 20 \
+    --avg 10
+
+will generate a file ``pruned_transducer_stateless3/exp/pretrained.pt``, which
+is a dict containing ``{"model": model.state_dict()}`` saved by ``torch.save()``.
+
+How to use the exported model
+-----------------------------
+
+For each recipe, we provide pretrained models hosted on huggingface.
+You can find links to pretrained models in ``RESULTS.md`` of each dataset.
+
+In the following, we demonstrate how to use the pretrained model from
+`<https://huggingface.co/csukuangfj/icefall-asr-librispeech-pruned-transducer-stateless3-2022-05-13>`_.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+   cd egs/librispeech/ASR
+
+   git lfs install
+   git clone https://huggingface.co/csukuangfj/icefall-asr-librispeech-pruned-transducer-stateless3-2022-05-13
+
+After cloning the repo with ``git lfs``, you will find several files in the folder
+``icefall-asr-librispeech-pruned-transducer-stateless3-2022-05-13/exp``
+that have a prefix ``pretrained-``. Those files contain ``model.state_dict()``
+exported by the above ``export.py``.
+
+In each recipe, there is also a file ``pretrained.py``, which can use
+``pretrained-xxx.pt`` to decode waves. The following is an example:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+   cd egs/librispeech/ASR
+
+   ./pruned_transducer_stateless3/pretrained.py \
+      --checkpoint ./icefall-asr-librispeech-pruned-transducer-stateless3-2022-05-13/exp/pretrained-iter-1224000-avg-14.pt \
+      --bpe-model ./icefall-asr-librispeech-pruned-transducer-stateless3-2022-05-13/data/lang_bpe_500/bpe.model \
+      --method greedy_search \
+      ./icefall-asr-librispeech-pruned-transducer-stateless3-2022-05-13/test_wavs/1089-134686-0001.wav \
+      ./icefall-asr-librispeech-pruned-transducer-stateless3-2022-05-13/test_wavs/1221-135766-0001.wav \
+      ./icefall-asr-librispeech-pruned-transducer-stateless3-2022-05-13/test_wavs/1221-135766-0002.wav
+
+The above commands show how to use the exported model with ``pretrained.py`` to
+decode multiple sound files. Its output is given as follows for reference:
+
+.. literalinclude:: ./code/export-model-state-dict-pretrained-out.txt
+
+Use the exported model to run decode.py
+---------------------------------------
+
+When we publish the model, we always note down its WERs on some test
+dataset in ``RESULTS.md``. This section describes how to use the
+pretrained model to reproduce the WER.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+   cd egs/librispeech/ASR
+   git lfs install
+   git clone https://huggingface.co/csukuangfj/icefall-asr-librispeech-pruned-transducer-stateless3-2022-05-13
+
+   cd icefall-asr-librispeech-pruned-transducer-stateless3-2022-05-13/exp
+   ln -s pretrained-iter-1224000-avg-14.pt epoch-9999.pt
+   cd ../..
+
+We create a symlink with name ``epoch-9999.pt`` to ``pretrained-iter-1224000-avg-14.pt``,
+so that we can pass ``--epoch 9999 --avg 1`` to ``decode.py`` in the following
+command:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+  ./pruned_transducer_stateless3/decode.py \
+      --epoch 9999 \
+      --avg 1 \
+      --exp-dir ./icefall-asr-librispeech-pruned-transducer-stateless3-2022-05-13/exp \
+      --lang-dir ./icefall-asr-librispeech-pruned-transducer-stateless3-2022-05-13/data/lang_bpe_500 \
+      --max-duration 600 \
+      --decoding-method greedy_search
+
+You will find the decoding results in
+``./icefall-asr-librispeech-pruned-transducer-stateless3-2022-05-13/exp/greedy_search``.
+
+.. caution::
+
+   For some recipes, you also need to pass ``--use-averaged-model False``
+   to ``decode.py``. The reason is that the exported pretrained model is already
+   the averaged one.
+
+.. hint::
+
+   Before running ``decode.py``, we assume that you have already run
+   ``prepare.sh`` to prepare the test dataset.
