About
Fine-tuned facebook/wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53 in Lithuanian using the Common Voice
When using this model, make sure that your speech input is sampled at 16kHz.
The model can be used directly (without a language model) as follows:
import torch
import torchaudio
from datasets import load_dataset
from transformers import Wav2Vec2ForCTC, Wav2Vec2Processor
test_dataset = load_dataset("common_voice", "lt", split="test[:2%]")
processor = Wav2Vec2Processor.from_pretrained("DeividasM/wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53-lithuanian")
model = Wav2Vec2ForCTC.from_pretrained("DeividasM/wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53-lithuanian")
resampler = torchaudio.transforms.Resample(48_000, 16_000)
# Preprocessing the datasets.
# We need to read the audio files as arrays
def speech_file_to_array_fn(batch):
\\tspeech_array, sampling_rate = torchaudio.load(batch["path"])
\\tbatch["speech"] = resampler(speech_array).squeeze().numpy()
\\treturn batch
test_dataset = test_dataset.map(speech_file_to_array_fn)
inputs = processor(test_dataset["speech"][:2], sampling_rate=16_000, return_tensors="pt", padding=True)
with torch.no_grad():
\\tlogits = model(inputs.input_values, attention_mask=inputs.attention_mask).logits
predicted_ids = torch.argmax(logits, dim=-1)
print("Prediction:", processor.batch_decode(predicted_ids))
print("Reference:", test_dataset["sentence"][:2])
The model can be evaluated as follows on the Lithuanian test data of Common Voice.
import torch

# Preprocessing the datasets.

def speech_file_to_array_fn(batch):
\\tbatch["sentence"] = re.sub(chars_to_ignore_regex, '', batch["sentence"]).lower()
\\tspeech_array, sampling_rate = torchaudio.load(batch["path"])

# Preprocessing the datasets.
# We need to read the audio files as arrays
def evaluate(batch):
\\tinputs = processor(batch["speech"], sampling_rate=16_000, return_tensors="pt", padding=True)
\\twith torch.no_grad():
\\t\\tlogits = model(inputs.input_values.to("cuda"), attention_mask=inputs.attention_mask.to("cuda")).logits
pred_ids = torch.argmax(logits, dim=-1)
\\tbatch["pred_strings"] = processor.batch_decode(pred_ids)
\\treturn batch
result = test_dataset.map(evaluate, batched=True, batch_size=8)
print("WER: {:2f}".format(100 * wer.compute(predictions=result["pred_strings"], references=result["sentence"])))

Using it via the API
Once AxForge deploys wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53-lithuanian for you, it answers on the OpenAI-compatible API — the same base URL and keys as every other model. (wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53-lithuanian below is illustrative; you get the exact model name on deployment.)
