<h1>Introduction<a class="headerlink" href="#introduction" title="Permalink to this heading"></a></h1>
|
||
<p>This page shows you how we implement streaming <strong>X-former transducer</strong> models for ASR.</p>
|
||
<div class="admonition hint">
|
||
<p class="admonition-title">Hint</p>
|
||
<p>X-former transducer here means the encoder of the transducer model uses Multi-Head Attention,
|
||
like <a class="reference external" href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2005.08100.pdf">Conformer</a>, <a class="reference external" href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2010.10759.pdf">EmFormer</a> etc.</p>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<p>Currently we have implemented two types of streaming models, one uses Conformer as encoder, the other uses Emformer as encoder.</p>
|
||
<section id="streaming-conformer">
|
||
<h2>Streaming Conformer<a class="headerlink" href="#streaming-conformer" title="Permalink to this heading"></a></h2>
|
||
<p>The main idea of training a streaming model is to make the model see limited contexts
|
||
in training time, we can achieve this by applying a mask to the output of self-attention.
|
||
In icefall, we implement the streaming conformer the way just like what <a class="reference external" href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2012.05481.pdf">WeNet</a> did.</p>
|
||
<div class="admonition note">
|
||
<p class="admonition-title">Note</p>
|
||
<p>The conformer-transducer recipes in LibriSpeech datasets, like, <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/k2-fsa/icefall/tree/master/egs/librispeech/ASR/pruned_transducer_stateless">pruned_transducer_stateless</a>,

|

all support streaming.</p>
|

</div>
|

<div class="admonition note">
|
||
<p class="admonition-title">Note</p>
|
||
<p>Training a streaming conformer model in <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">icefall</span></code> is almost the same as training a
|
||
non-streaming model, all you need to do is passing several extra arguments.
|
||
See <a class="reference internal" href="librispeech/pruned_transducer_stateless.html"><span class="doc">Pruned transducer statelessX</span></a> for more details.</p>

<h2>Streaming Emformer<a class="headerlink" href="#streaming-emformer" title="Permalink to this heading"></a></h2>
|
||
<p>The Emformer model proposed <a class="reference external" href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2010.10759.pdf">here</a> uses more
|
||
complicated techniques. It has a memory bank component to memorize history information,
|
||
what’ more, it also introduces right context in training time by hard-copying part of
|
||
the input features.</p>
|
||
<p>We have three variants of Emformer models in <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">icefall</span></code>.</p>
|
||
<blockquote>
|
||
<div><ul class="simple">
|
||
<li><p><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">pruned_stateless_emformer_rnnt2</span></code> using Emformer from torchaudio, see <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/k2-fsa/icefall/tree/master/egs/librispeech/ASR/pruned_stateless_emformer_rnnt2">LibriSpeech recipe</a>.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">conv_emformer_transducer_stateless</span></code> using ConvEmformer implemented by ourself. Different from the Emformer in torchaudio,
|
||
ConvEmformer has a convolution in each layer and uses the mechanisms in our reworked conformer model.
|
||
See <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/k2-fsa/icefall/tree/master/egs/librispeech/ASR/conv_emformer_transducer_stateless">LibriSpeech recipe</a>.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">conv_emformer_transducer_stateless2</span></code> using ConvEmformer implemented by ourself. The only difference from the above one is that
|
||
it uses a simplified memory bank. See <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/k2-fsa/icefall/tree/master/egs/librispeech/ASR/conv_emformer_transducer_stateless2">LibriSpeech recipe</a>.</p></li>
