This is the 0.8.2 release of Deep Speech, an open speech-to-text engine. In accord with semantic versioning, this version is not completely backwards compatible with earlier versions. However, models exported for 0.7.X should work with this release. As with previous releases, this release includes the source code:
The model with the ".pbmm" extension is memory mapped and thus memory efficient and fast to load. The model with the ".tflite" extension is converted to use TFLite, has post-training quantization enabled, and is more suitable for resource constrained environments.
The acoustic models were trained on American English and the pbmm model achieves an 5.97% word error rate on the LibriSpeech clean test corpus.
Note that the model currently performs best in low-noise environments with clear recordings and has a bias towards US male accents. This does not mean the model cannot be used outside of these conditions, but that accuracy may be lower. Some users may need to train the model further to meet their intended use-case.
Training Regimen + Hyperparameters for fine-tuning
The hyperparameters used to train the model are useful for fine tuning. Thus, we document them here along with the training regimen, hardware used (a server with 8 Quadro RTX 6000 GPUs each with 24GB of VRAM), and our use of cuDNN RNN.
In contrast to some previous releases, training for this release occurred in several phases each phase with a lower learning rate than the phase before it.
