Example to train a wav2vec model as described in wav2vec: Unsupervised Pre-training for Speech Recognition (Schneider et al., 2019).

Pre-trained models

Description	Parameters	Dataset	Model
Wav2Vec large ((Schneider et al., 2019))	32.5M	Librispeech	download

Example usage:

import torch
from fairseq.models.wav2vec import Wav2VecModel

cp = torch.load('/path/to/wav2vec.pt')
model = Wav2VecModel.build_model(cp['args'], task=None)
model.load_state_dict(cp['model'])
model.eval()

wav_input_16khz = torch.randn(1,10000)
z = model.feature_extractor(wav_input_16khz)
c = model.feature_aggregator(z)

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:

$ python scripts/wav2vec_manifest.py /path/to/waves --dest /manifest/path --ext wav

Train a wav2vec model:

$ python train.py /manifest/path --save-dir /model/path --num-workers 6 --fp16 --max-update 400000 --save-interval 1 --no-epoch-checkpoints \

Extract embeddings from the downstream task data:

$ PYTHONPATH=/path/to/fairseq python examples/wav2vec/wav2vec_featurize.py --input /path/to/task/waves --output /path/to/output \
--model /model/path/checkpoint_best.pt --split train valid test

_, idxs = model.vector_quantizer.forward_idx(z)
print(idxs.shape) # output: torch.Size([1, 60, 2]), 60 timesteps with 2 indexes corresponding to 2 groups in the model

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:

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

Train a gumbel vq-wav2vec model:
