DysASR

An equal-weight average of the epoch 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 checkpoints of No training was done here, and inference costs exactly what one model costs. Like its ingredient, this model has no reported WER or CER and cannot have one. That run trains on every held-out hour the project has, including the SAPC2 dev split the rest of this family scores against. Averaging its epochs does not create a set to measure on. So this checkpoint rests on a bet rather than a measurement, and it is worth same soup of the same five epochs was worth 0.27 CER points — 6.06% against 6.33% for the best single epoch. That is the whole of the evidence. It is evidence from a different architecture (RNN-T, not TDT) on…

nvidia/parakeet-tdt-0.6b-v3 fine-tuned on all 1,047.7 hours this project holds: SAPC1 train and dev, SAPC2 train, the SAPC2 dev split the rest of this family scores against, 103.1 hours of synthetic dysarthric speech, 79.2 hours recovered by force-aligning and cutting recordings past the 45-second training cap, and 15.5 hours of AtaxiaUK and HeyJay!, which are outside the challenge corpora and make this an unconstrained-track model. This model has no reported WER or CER, and cannot have one. Every held-out hour is in its training data. That was the point: the hyperparameters were settled on the sibling runs that do hold out a dev split, and this run spends that split as training data…
