Questions About univ_conformer_base_ge2e

How much GPU memory does univ_conformer_base_ge2e need?

About 0 GB at 16-bit and 0 GB at 4-bit: the weights (5M parameters) plus a working margin. A long context needs more.

What is the cheapest GPU to run univ_conformer_base_ge2e 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.

Can I use univ_conformer_base_ge2e commercially?

Yes. univ_conformer_base_ge2e is released under Apache License 2.0. The Apache License 2.0 is a permissive open-source license. It permits commercial use, modification and redistribution. It requires keeping the license and copyright notices and any NOTICE file, stating significant changes, and it includes an express patent grant from contributors.

WeSpeaker-ResNet34-LM-MLX

Ivan

MLX-compatible weights for WeSpeaker ResNet34-LM, converted from the pyannote speaker embedding model with BatchNorm fused into Conv2d. WeSpeaker ResNet34-LM is a speaker embedding model (~6.6M params) that produces 256-dimensional L2-normalized speaker embeddings from audio. Trained on VoxCeleb for speaker verification and diarization. BatchNorm is fused into Conv2d at conversion time — no BN layers in the MLX model. Part of speech-swift. Converts the original pyannote/wespeaker-voxceleb-resnet34-LM checkpoint using a custom unpickler (no pyannote.audio dependency required). Key transformations: - Fuse BatchNorm into Conv2d: wfused = w × γ/√(σ²+ε), bfused = β − μ×γ/√(σ²+ε) - Transpose…
