Introduction

The icefall project contains speech-related recipes for various datasets using k2-fsa and lhotse.

You can use sherpa, sherpa-ncnn or sherpa-onnx for deployment with models in icefall; these frameworks also support models not included in icefall; please refer to respective documents for more details.

You can try pre-trained models from within your browser without the need to download or install anything by visiting this huggingface space. Please refer to document for more details.

Installation

Please refer to document for installation.

Recipes

Please refer to document for more details.

ASR: Automatic Speech Recognition

Supported Datasets

More datasets will be added in the future.

Supported Models

The LibriSpeech recipe supports the most comprehensive set of models, you are welcome to try them out.

CTC

  • TDNN LSTM CTC
  • Conformer CTC
  • Zipformer CTC

MMI

  • Conformer MMI
  • Zipformer MMI

Transducer

  • Conformer-based Encoder
  • LSTM-based Encoder
  • Zipformer-based Encoder
  • LSTM-based Predictor
  • Stateless Predictor

Whisper

If you are willing to contribute to icefall, please refer to contributing for more details.

We would like to highlight the performance of some of the recipes here.

This is the simplest ASR recipe in icefall and can be run on CPU. Training takes less than 30 seconds and gives you the following WER:

[test_set] %WER 0.42% [1 / 240, 0 ins, 1 del, 0 sub ]

We provide a Colab notebook for this recipe: Open In Colab

Deployment with C++

Once you have trained a model in icefall, you may want to deploy it with C++ without Python dependencies.

Please refer to

for how to do this.

We also provide a Colab notebook, showing you how to run a torch scripted model in k2 with C++. Please see: Open In Colab
