Model information
The SpeechLMM 1.0 collection of multimodal and multilingual large language models is a collection of instruction-tuned generative models in 4 different sizes: S (2B), M (4B), L (9B) and XL (71B), supporting text, audio and video as input and only text as output. The SpeechLMM 1.0 models are optimized for various X-to-text generation tasks, namely:
- Machine Translation
- Automatic Speech Recognition
- Speech Translation
- Speech Summarization
- Spoken Question Answering
- Spoken Language Understanding (beta)
- Visual Speech Recognition (beta)
Model Developer: Meetween consortium
Supported Languages: English, French, Italian, German, and Spanish are officially supported (for a subset of the supported tasks). The Llama 3.X backbone and the SeamlessM4T v2 audio encoder have been trained on a broader collection of languages than these 5 supported languages, so the model might exhibit good performance on other languages too.

Model Architecture
SpeechLMM 1.0 an auto-regressive multimodal language model based on a Llama 3.X backbone (X varies with the model size), a speech-specific stack consisting of a pre-trained audio encoder (SeamlessM4T v2) and an audio adapter, and a video-specific stack consisting of a pre-trained video encoder (Auto-AVSR) and a video adapter.

Audio and video encoders
For all the 4 sizes of SpeechLMM 1.0, the audio encoder is SeamlessM4T v2 Large (facebook/seamless-m4t-v2-large) and the video encoder is Auto-AVSR (vsr_trlrs3vox2_base).
Audio and video adapters
For all the 4 sizes of SpeechLMM 1.0, the audio and video adapters are:
| Modality | Architecture | Number of layers | Compression factor |
|---|---|---|---|
| Audio | MLP | 4 | 1 |
| Video | Window-level Q-former (4 queries) |

How to use
Currently, this model can only be used via our speechlmm codebase. Refer to the instructions there for more details.
Important: before you can use this model, you must download the SeamlessM4T v2 speech encoder and the Auto-AVSR video encoder by following the instructions provided in the README of the above repo. Please note that by doing so, you agree with their respective license terms.
