# Finnish Wav2vec2-Large
The large model pre-trained on 16kHz sampled speech audio. When using the model make sure that your speech input is also sampled at 16Khz.
**Note**: This model does not have a tokenizer as it was pre-trained on audio alone. In order to use this model **speech recognition**, a tokenizer should be created and the model should be fine-tuned on labeled text data. Check out [this blog](https://huggingface.co/blog/fine-tune-xlsr-wav2vec2) for more in-detail explanation of how to fine-tune the model.
**Note**: Fine-tuned version is available at [GetmanY1/wav2vec2-large-fi-150k-finetuned](https://huggingface.co/GetmanY1/wav2vec2-large-fi-150k-finetuned)
## Model description
The Finnish Wav2Vec2 Large has the same architecture and uses the same training objective as the English and multilingual one described in [Paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.11477). It is pre-trained on 158k hours of unlabeled Finnish speech, including [KAVI radio and television archive materials](https://kavi.fi/en/radio-ja-televisioarkistointia-vuodesta-2008/), Lahjoita puhetta (Donate Speech), Finnish Parliament, Finnish VoxPopuli.
You can read more about the pre-trained model from [this paper](TODO). The training scripts are available on [GitHub](https://github.com/aalto-speech/large-scale-monolingual-speech-foundation-models).
## Intended uses & limitations
You can use this model for Finnish ASR (speech-to-text) and SER (Spoken Emotion Recognition) tasks.
### How to use
See [this notebook](https://colab.research.google.com/github/patrickvonplaten/notebooks/blob/master/Fine_Tune_XLS_R_on_Common_Voice.ipynb) for more information on how to fine-tune the model.
### Limitations and bias
This model was pre-trained with audio samples whose maximum length was 60 seconds so this model most likely works the best for quite short audios of similar length. However, you can try this model with a lot longer audios too and see how it works. If you encounter out of memory errors with very long audio files you can use the audio chunking method introduced in [this blog post](https://huggingface.co/blog/asr-chunking).
A vast majority of the data used for pre-training was from the [KAVI](https://kavi.fi/en/radio-ja-televisioarkistointia-vuodesta-2008/) archives so this model might have biases towards the voices of tv and radio hosts, as well as to colloquial Finnish. The pre-training data was filtered via neural [VAD](https://huggingface.co/pyannote/voice-activity-detection), but some non-speech events like music might be still present in the traning data, which might cause issues when fine-tuned on clear (no background noise) speech.
## Training data
This model was pre-trained with 158k hours of Finnish speech data from the following sources:

| [VoxPopuli Finnish](https://github.com/facebookresearch/voxpopuli) | 14264 h | 9.04 % |
| [YlePuhe](https://kavi.fi/en/radio-ja-televisioarkistointia-vuodesta-2008/) | 95478 h | 60.52 % |
| [MTV3](https://kavi.fi/en/radio-ja-televisioarkistointia-vuodesta-2008/) | 16723 h | 10.60 % |
| [YleTV1](https://kavi.fi/en/radio-ja-televisioarkistointia-vuodesta-2008/) | 13947 h | 8.84 % |
| [AlfaTV](https://kavi.fi/en/radio-ja-televisioarkistointia-vuodesta-2008/) | 11933 h | 7.56 % |
Datasets were filtered to include a maximum length of 60 seconds long audio samples.
## Training procedure
Training was done on 256 AMD MI250x GPU modules (512 GPUs from the software perspective), using [LUMI](https://www.lumi-supercomputer.eu/), during the [Second Finnish LUMI Extreme Scale](https://research.csc.fi/web/group-10180/-/more-finnish-lumi-projects-chosen-advancing-speech-model-for-finnish-advancing-string-theory).
Training script was provided by Fairseq and it is available [here](https://github.com/facebookresearch/fairseq/tree/main/examples/wav2vec).
