Pruned Stateless Zipformer RNN-T Streaming Robust SW

Pruned Stateless Zipformer RNN-T Streaming Robust SW is an automatic speech recognition model trained on the following datasets:

Instead of being trained to predict sequences of words, this model was trained to predict sequence of phonemes, e.g. ["w", "ɑ", "ʃ", "i", "ɑ"]. Therefore, the model's vocabulary contains the different IPA phonemes found in gruut.

This model was trained using icefall framework. All training was done on a Scaleway RENDER-S VM with a NVIDIA H100 GPU. All necessary scripts used for training could be found in the Files and versions tab, as well as the Training metrics logged via Tensorboard.
