    Use Cases & Benefits

    • Implements training and evaluation pipelines for robust speech recognition models using large-scale audio-text datasets.
    • Enables scalable, distributed training of ASR models with detailed data processing and filtering steps for improved accuracy.
    • Use for developing custom English short-form speech recognition models with sentence-level timestamps.
    • Use for training and evaluating long-form speech recognition models on diverse datasets with distributed GPU support.
    • Use for preprocessing and filtering large audio-transcript datasets to prepare high-quality training data for ASR.

    From the README

    This repository serves to illustrate the steps taken to train OLMoASR models, all the way from the initial data processing to evaluating the model.

    Before starting the Quickstart tutorial, you'll need to download the data (audio-transcript pairs) and organize it in a directory structure as elaborated below to continue the data processing step:

    You can download the data from OLMoASR-Pool HuggingFace.
