Data Preparation
================
The first step is to prepare the data for training. We have already provided
`prepare.sh <https://github.com/k2-fsa/icefall/blob/master/egs/yesno/ASR/prepare.sh>`_
that would prepare everything required for training.
.. code-block::
cd /tmp/icefall
export PYTHONPATH=/tmp/icefall:$PYTHONPATH
cd egs/yesno/ASR
./prepare.sh
Note that in each recipe from `icefall`_, there exists a file ``prepare.sh``,
which you should run before you run anything else.
That is all you need for data preparation.
For the more curious
--------------------
If you are wondering how to prepare your own dataset, please refer to the following
URLs for more details:
- `<https://github.com/lhotse-speech/lhotse/tree/master/lhotse/recipes>`_
It contains recipes for a variety of dataset. If you want to add your own
dataset, please read recipes in this folder first.
- `<https://github.com/lhotse-speech/lhotse/blob/master/lhotse/recipes/yesno.py>`_
The `yesno`_ recipe in `lhotse`_.
If you already have a `Kaldi`_ dataset directory, which contains files like
``wav.scp``, ``feats.scp``, then you can refer to `<https://lhotse.readthedocs.io/en/latest/kaldi.html#example>`_.
A quick look to the generated files
-----------------------------------
``./prepare.sh`` puts generated files into two directories:
- ``download``
- ``data``
download
^^^^^^^^
The ``download`` directory contains downloaded dataset files:
.. code-block:: bas
tree -L 1 ./download/
./download/
|-- waves_yesno
`-- waves_yesno.tar.gz
.. hint::
Please refer to `<https://github.com/lhotse-speech/lhotse/blob/master/lhotse/recipes/yesno.py#L41>`_
for how the data is downloaded and extracted.
data
^^^^
.. code-block:: bash
tree ./data/
./data/
|-- fbank
| |-- yesno_cuts_test.jsonl.gz
| |-- yesno_cuts_train.jsonl.gz
| |-- yesno_feats_test.lca

|-- yesno_recordings_test.jsonl.gz
|-- yesno_recordings_train.jsonl.gz
|-- yesno_supervisions_test.jsonl.gz
`-- yesno_supervisions_train.jsonl.gz
4 directories, 18 files
**data/manifests**:
This directory contains manifests. There are used to generate files in
``data/fbank``.
To give you an idea of what it contains, we examine the first few lines of
the manifests related to the ``train`` dataset.
.. code-block:: bash
cd data/manifests
gunzip -c yesno_recordings_train.jsonl.gz | head -n 3
The output is given below:
.. code-block:: bash

Please refer to `<https://github.com/lhotse-speech/lhotse/blob/master/lhotse/audio.py#L300>`_
for the meaning of each field per line.
.. code-block:: bash

Please refer to `<https://github.com/lhotse-speech/lhotse/blob/master/lhotse/supervision.py#L510>`_
for the meaning of each field per line.
**data/fbank**:
This directory contains everything from ``data/manifests``. Furthermore, it also contains features
for training.
``data/fbank/yesno_feats_train.lca`` contains the features for the train dataset.
Features are compressed using `lilcom`_.
``data/fbank/yesno_cuts_train.jsonl.gz`` stores the `CutSet <https://github.com/lhotse-speech/lhotse/blob/master/lhotse/cut/set.py#L72>`_,
which stores `RecordingSet <https://github.com/lhotse-speech/lhotse/blob/master/lhotse/audio.py#L928>`_,
`SupervisionSet <https://github.com/lhotse-speech/lhotse/blob/master/lhotse/supervision.py#L510>`_,
and `FeatureSet <https://github.com/lhotse-speech/lhotse/blob/master/lhotse/features/base.py#L593>`_.
To give you an idea about what it looks like, we can run the following command:
.. code-block:: bash
cd data/fbank
gunzip -c yesno_cuts_train.jsonl.gz | head -n 3

Note that ``yesno_cuts_train.jsonl.gz`` only stores the information about how to read the features.
The actual features are stored separately in ``data/fbank/yesno_feats_train.lca``.

Environment setup
=================
We will create an environment for `Next-gen Kaldi`_ that runs on ``CPU``
in this tutorial.
.. note::
Since the `yesno`_ dataset used in this tutorial is very tiny, training on
``CPU`` works very well for it.
If your dataset is very large, e.g., hundreds or thousands of hours of
training data, please follow :ref:`install icefall` to install `icefall`_
that works with ``GPU``.
Create a virtual environment
----------------------------
.. code-block:: bash
virtualenv -p python3 /tmp/icefall_env
The above command creates a virtual environment in the directory ``/tmp/icefall_env``.
You can select any directory you want.
The output of the above command is given below:
.. code-block:: bash
Already using interpreter /usr/bin/python3
Using base prefix '/usr'
New python executable in /tmp/icefall_env/bin/python3
Also creating executable in /tmp/icefall_env/bin/python
Installing setuptools, pkg_resources, pip, wheel...done.
Now we can activate the environment using:
.. code-block:: bash
source /tmp/icefall_env/bin/activate
Install dependencies
--------------------
.. warning::
Remeber to activate your virtual environment before you continue!
After activating the virtual environment, we can use the following command
to install dependencies of `icefall`_:
.. hint::
Remeber that we will run this tutorial on ``CPU``, so we install
dependencies required only by running on ``CPU``.
.. code-block:: bash
# Caution: Installation order matters!
# We use torch 2.0.0 and torchaduio 2.0.0 in this tutorial.
# Other versions should also work.
pip install torch==2.0.0+cpu torchaudio==2.0.0+cpu -f https://download.pytorch.org/whl/torch_stable.html
# Now install k2
# Please refer to https://k2-fsa.github.io/k2/installation/from_wheels.html#linux-cpu-example
pip install k2==1.24.3.dev20230726+cpu.torch2.0.0 -f https://k2-fsa.github.io/k2/cpu.html
# Install the latest version of lhotse
pip install git+https://github.com/lhotse-speech/lhotse
Install icefall
---------------
We will put the source code of `icefall`_ into the directory ``/tmp``
You can select any directory you want.
.. code-block:: bash
cd /tmp
git clone https://github.com/k2-fsa/icefall
cd icefall
pip install -r ./requirements.txt
.. code-block:: bash
# Anytime we want to use icefall, we have to set the following
# environment variable
export PYTHONPATH=/tmp/icefall:$PYTHONPATH
Congratulations! You have installed `icefall`_ successfully.

Icefall for dummies tutorial
============================
This tutorial walks you step by step about how to create a simple
ASR (`Automatic Speech Recognition <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speech_recognition>`_)
system with `Next-gen Kaldi`_.
It uses the `yesno`_ dataset for demonstration. The `yesno`_ dataset
is very tiny and the model training can be finished within 20 seconds on ``CPU``.
That also means you don't need a ``GPU`` to finish this tutorial.
Let's get started!
Please follow items below **sequentially**.
