wav2vec 2.0

wav2vec 2.0 learns speech representations on unlabeled data as described in wav2vec 2.0: A Framework for Self-Supervised Learning of Speech Representations (Baevski et al., 2020).

We learned speech representations in multiple languages as well in Unsupervised Cross-lingual Representation Learning for Speech Recognition (Conneau et al., 2020).

We also combined wav2vec 2.0 with self-training in Self-training and Pre-training are Complementary for Speech Recognition (Xu et al., 2020).

We combined speech data from multiple domains in Robust wav2vec 2.0: Analyzing Domain Shift in Self-Supervised Pre-Training (Hsu, et al., 2021).

We finetuned XLSR-53 on multiple languages to transcribe unseen languages in Simple and Effective Zero-shot Cross-lingual Phoneme Recognition (Xu et al., 2021).

We also release multilingual pre-trained wav2vec 2.0 (XLSR) models:

Model Architecture Hours Languages Datasets Model
XLSR-53 Large 56k 53 MLS, CommonVoice, BABEL download

The XLSR model uses the following datasets for multilingual pretraining:

  • MLS: Multilingual LibriSpeech (8 languages, 50.7k hours): Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish

  • CommonVoice (36 languages, 3.6k hours): Arabic, Basque, Breton, Chinese (CN), Chinese (HK), Chinese (TW), Chuvash, Dhivehi, Dutch, English, Esperanto, Estonian, French, German, Hakh-Chin, Indonesian, Interlingua, Irish, Italian, Japanese, Kabyle, Kinyarwanda, Kyrgyz, Latvian, Mongolian, Persian, Portuguese, Russian, Sakha, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Tamil, Tatar, Turkish, Welsh (see also finetuning splits from this paper).

  • Babel (17 languages, 1.7k hours): Assamese, Bengali, Cantonese, Cebuano, Georgian, Haitian, Kazakh, Kurmanji, Lao, Pashto, Swahili, Tagalog, Tamil, Tok, Turkish, Vietnamese, Zulu

We also finetuned several models on languages from CommonVoice (version 6.1) and Babel. Please refer to our paper for details about which languages are used.

Pretrained Model Fintune Dataset # Languages Phonemizer Model Dictionary
LV-60 CommonVoice 26 Espeak download download
XLSR-53 CommonVoice 26 Espeak download download
XLSR-53 CommonVoice 21 Phonetisaurus download download
XLSR-53 CommonVoice, BABEL 21, 19 Phonetisaurus download download

We release 2 models that are finetuned on data from 2 different phonemizers. Although the phonemes are all IPA symbols, there are still subtle differences between the phonemized transcriptions from the 2 phonemizers. Thus, it's better to use the corresponding model, if your data is phonemized by either phonemizer above.

Training a new model with the CLI tools

Given a directory containing wav files to be used for pretraining (we recommend splitting each file into separate file 10 to 30 seconds in length)

Prepare training data manifest:

First, install the soundfile library:

pip install soundfile

Next, run:

$ python examples/wav2vec/wav2vec_manifest.py /path/to/waves --dest /manifest/path --ext $ext --valid-percent $valid

$ext should be set to flac, wav, or whatever format your dataset happens to use that soundfile can read.

$valid should be set to some reasonable percentage (like 0.01) of training data to use for validation. To use a pre-defined validation set (like dev-other from librispeech), set to it 0 and then overwrite valid.tsv with a separately pre-processed manifest file.

Train a wav2vec 2.0 base model:

This configuration was used for the base model trained on the Librispeech dataset in the wav2vec 2.0 paper

Note that the input is expected to be single channel, sampled at 16 kHz

$ fairseq-hydra-train \
    task.data=/path/to/data \
    --config-dir /path/to/fairseq-py/examples/wav2vec/config/pretraining \
    --config-name wav2vec2_base_librispeech

Note: you can simulate 64 GPUs by using k GPUs and adding command line parameters (before --config-dir) distributed_training.distributed_world_size=k +optimization.update_freq='[x]' where x = 64/k

Train a wav2vec 2.0 large model:

This configuration was used for the large model trained on the Libri-light dataset in the wav2vec 2.0 paper

$ fairseq-hydra-train \
    task.data=/path/to/data \
    --config-dir /path/to/fairseq-py/examples/wav2vec/config/pretraining \
    --config-name wav2vec2_large_librivox

Note: you can simulate 128 GPUs by using k GPUs and adding command line parameters (before --config-dir) distributed_training.distributed_world_size=k +optimization.update_freq='[x]' where x = 128/k

Fine-tune a pre-trained model with CTC:

Fine-tuning a model requires parallel audio and labels file, as well as a vocabulary file in fairseq format. A letter vocabulary can be downloaded here. An example script that generates labels for the Librispeech dataset from the tsv file produced by wav2vec_manifest.py can be used as follows:

split=train
$ python libri_labels.py /path/to/tsv --output-dir /output/dir --output-name $split

Fine-tuning on 100h of Librispeech with letter targets:

$ fairseq-hydra-train \
    distributed_training.distributed_port=$PORT \
    task.data=/path/to/data \
    model.w2v_path=/path/to/model.pt \
    --config-dir /path/to/fairseq-py/examples/wav2vec/config/finetuning \
    --config-name base_100h

There are other config files in the config/finetuning directory that can be used to fine-tune on other splits. You can specify the right config via the --config-name parameter.

Note: you can simulate 24 GPUs by using k GPUs and adding command line parameters (before --config-dir) distributed_training.distributed_world_size=k +optimization.update_freq='[x]' where x = 24/k

Decoding with a language model during training requires flashlight python bindings (previously called wav2letter. If you want to use a language model, add +criterion.wer_args='[/path/to/kenlm, /path/to/lexicon, 2, -1]' to the command line.

Evaluating a CTC model:

Evaluating a CTC model with a language model requires flashlight python bindings (previously called wav2letter to be installed.

Fairseq transformer language model used in the wav2vec 2.0 paper can be obtained from the wav2letter model repository. Be sure to upper-case the language model vocab after downloading it.

Letter dictionary for pre-trained models can be found here.

Next, run the evaluation command:

$subset=dev_other
python examples/speech_recognition/infer.py /checkpoint/abaevski/data/speech/libri/10h/wav2vec/raw --task audio_finetuning \
--nbest 1 --path /path/to/model --gen-subset $subset --results-path /path/to/save/results/for/sclite --w2l-decoder kenlm \
--lm-model /path/to/kenlm.bin --lm-weight 2 --word-score -1 --sil-weight 0 --criterion ctc --labels ltr --max-tokens 4000000 \
--post-process letter

To get raw numbers, use --w2l-decoder viterbi and omit the lexicon. To use the transformer language model, use --w2l-decoder fairseqlm.

Use wav2vec 2.0 with 🤗Transformers:

Wav2Vec2 is also available in the 🤗Transformers library since version 4.4.

Pretrained Models can be found on the hub and documentation can be found here.

Usage example:

# !pip install transformers
# !pip install datasets
import soundfile as sf
import torch
from datasets import load_dataset
from transformers import Wav2Vec2ForCTC, Wav2Vec2Processor

# load pretrained model
processor = Wav2Vec2Processor.from_pretrained("facebook/wav2vec2-base-960h")
model = Wav2Vec2ForCTC.from_pretrained("facebook/wav2vec2-base-960h")


librispeech_samples_ds = load_dataset("patrickvonplaten/librispeech_asr_dummy", "clean", split="validation")

# load audio
audio_input, sample_rate = sf.read(librispeech_samples_ds[0]["file"])

# pad input values and return pt tensor
input_values = processor(audio_input, sampling_rate=sample_rate, return_tensors="pt").input_values

# INFERENCE

# retrieve logits & take argmax
logits = model(input_values).logits
predicted_ids = torch.argmax(logits, dim=-1)

# transcribe
transcription = processor.decode(predicted_ids[0])

# FINE-TUNE

target_transcription = "A MAN SAID TO THE UNIVERSE I EXIST"

# encode labels
with processor.as_target_processor():
  labels = processor(target_transcription, return_tensors="pt").input_ids

# compute loss by passing labels
loss = model(input_values, labels=labels).loss
loss.backward()
