Questions About moonshine-base-urdu-final-repo

How much GPU memory does moonshine-base-urdu-final-repo need?

About 0.1 GB at 16-bit and 0 GB at 4-bit: the weights (62M parameters) plus a working margin. A long context needs more.

What is the cheapest GPU to run moonshine-base-urdu-final-repo on?

At 16-bit, 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour; at 4-bit, 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour, at the lowest on-demand prices the SAVRN Index lists.

The base model pretrained and fine-tuned on 960 hours of Librispeech on 16kHz sampled speech audio. When using the model make sure that your speech input is also sampled at 16Khz. Authors: Alexei Baevski, Henry Zhou, Abdelrahman Mohamed, Michael Auli Abstract We show for the first time that learning powerful representations from speech audio alone followed by fine-tuning on transcribed speech can outperform the best semi-supervised methods while being conceptually simpler. wav2vec 2.0 masks the speech input in the latent space and solves a contrastive task defined over a quantization of the latent representations which are jointly learned.
