Model description

We pre-trained a wav2vec 2.0 base model on 842h of unlabelled Luxembourgish speech collected from RTL.lu. Then the model was fine-tuned on 4h of labelled Luxembourgish Speech from the same domain. Additionally, we rescore the output transcription with a 5-gram language model trained on text corpora from RTL.lu and the Luxembourgish parliament.

Inference Examples
This model does not have enough activity to be deployed to Inference API (serverless) yet. Increase its social visibility and check back later, or deploy to Inference Endpoints (dedicated) instead.
