TedLium3 BPE training results (Transducer)

Conformer encoder + embedding decoder

Using the codes from this PR commit 536ad2252e.

Conformer encoder + non-current decoder. The decoder contains only an embedding layer and a Conv1d (with kernel size 2).

The WERs are

The training command for reproducing is given below:

export CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES="0,1,2,3"

./transducer_stateless/train.py \
  --world-size 4 \
  --num-epochs 30 \
  --start-epoch 0 \
  --exp-dir transducer_stateless/exp \
  --max-duration 200 \

The tensorboard training log can be found at https://tensorboard.dev/experiment/DnRwoZF8RRyod4kkfG5q5Q/#scalars

The decoding command is:
