Introduce

Voice activity detection (VAD) plays a important role in speech recognition systems by detecting the beginning and end of effective speech. FunASR provides an efficient VAD model based on the FSMN structure. To improve model discrimination, we use monophones as modeling units, given the relatively rich speech information. During inference, the VAD system requires post-processing for improved robustness, including operations such as threshold settings and sliding windows.

This repository demonstrates how to leverage FSMN-VAD in conjunction with the funasr_onnx runtime. The underlying model is derived from FunASR, which was trained on a massive 5,000-hour dataset.

We have relesed numerous industrial-grade models, including speech recognition, voice activity detection, punctuation restoration, speaker verification, speaker diarization, and timestamp prediction (force alignment). To learn more about these models, kindly refer to the documentation available on FunASR. If you are interested in leveraging advanced AI technology for your speech-related projects, we invite you to explore the possibilities offered by FunASR.

Inference with runtime

Voice Activity Detection

FSMN-VAD

from funasr_onnx import Fsmn_vad

model_dir = "./FSMN-VAD"
model = Fsmn_vad(model_dir, quantize=True)

wav_path = "./FSMN-VAD/asr_example.wav"

result = model(wav_path)
print(result)
  • model_dir: the model path, which contains model.onnx, config.yaml, am.mvn
  • batch_size: 1 (Default), the batch size duration inference
  • device_id: -1 (Default), infer on CPU. If you want to infer with GPU, set it to gpu_id (Please make sure that you have install the onnxruntime-gpu)
  • quantize: False (Default), load the model of model.onnx in model_dir. If set True, load the model of model_quant.onnx in model_dir
  • intra_op_num_threads: 4 (Default), sets the number of threads used for intraop parallelism on CPU

Input: wav formt file, support formats: str, np.ndarray, List[str]

Output: List[str]: recognition result
