What it takes to serve wav2vec2-large-robust-12-ft-emotion-msp-dim (165M parameters): the memory its weights need at each precision, and the cheapest way to rent enough data-center GPUs to hold them.

Memory is the weights at that precision plus 20% for the runtime and a short context; a long context needs more. Prices are the lowest on-demand hourly rates in the SAVRN Index, read Sep 18, 2026.

SAVRN's Notes on wav2vec2-large-robust-12-ft-emotion-msp-dim

Three numbers come out of this model per clip: arousal, dominance and valence, each roughly 0 to 1. audEERING GmbH pruned the encoder from 24 to 12 layers before fine-tuning on MSP-Podcast, leaving 165M parameters. In 16-bit the weights are 0.3 GB and it runs in 0.4 GB, so the entry card, one MI300X at $1.85 per hour on-demand, is more than one instance needs; treat it as a rounding error on a busy card.

The license decides this one. CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 allows non-commercial sharing and adapting with credit, requires adaptations to carry the same license, and commercial use needs separate permission. The publisher calls the release research only and offers a commercial license for a model trained on much more data, so production use is a licensing conversation first. Check the paper, arXiv:2203.07378, and the ONNX export at doi:10.5281/zenodo.6221127 if you do not serve through transformers.

Model Card

Please note that this model is for research purpose only. A commercial license for a model that has been trained on much more data can be acquired with audEERING. The model expects a raw audio signal as input, and outputs predictions for arousal, dominance and valence in a range of approximately 0...1. In addition, it provides the pooled states of the last transformer layer. The model was created by fine-tuning The model was pruned from 24 to 12 transformer layers before fine-tuning. An ONNX export of the model is available from doi:10.5281/zenodo.6221127. Further details are given in the associated paper and tutorial.

This model is a fine-tuned version of facebook/wav2vec2-base-960h for Speech Emotion Recognition (SER). It has been trained using a Frozen Feature Extractor strategy to preserve the model's acoustic understanding while adapting to emotion detection. This approach ensures stable performance and prevents "Catastrophic Forgetting," achieving nearly 80% accuracy on the validation set. Update: The "Calm" and "Neutral" classes have been merged to improve classification consistency, resulting in 7 distinct emotion classes. The model was trained on a combined dataset of ~12,000 audio files from: The model classifies audio into one of the following emotions: 1. Angry 2. Disgust 3. Fear 4. Happy 5.…
