đ SEW-tiny
The SEW-tiny model is a pre - trained speech model by ASAPP Research, suitable for various speech - related downstream tasks.
đ Quick Start
The base model is pretrained on 16kHz sampled speech audio. When using the model, ensure that your speech input is also sampled at 16Khz. Note that this model should be fine - tuned on a downstream task, like Automatic Speech Recognition, Speaker Identification, Intent Classification, Emotion Recognition, etc...

Abstract
This paper is a study of performance - efficiency trade - offs in pre - trained models for automatic speech recognition (ASR). We focus on wav2vec 2.0, and formalize several architecture designs that influence both the model performance and its efficiency. Putting together all our observations, we introduce SEW (Squeezed and Efficient Wav2vec), a pre - trained model architecture with significant improvements along both performance and efficiency dimensions across a variety of training setups. For example, under the 100h - 960h semi - supervised setup on LibriSpeech, SEW achieves a 1.9x inference speedup compared to wav2vec 2.0, with a 13.5% relative reduction in word error rate. With a similar inference time, SEW reduces word error rate by 25 - 50% across different model sizes.
The original model can be found under https://github.com/asappresearch/sew#model - checkpoints.
⨠Features
- Audio - related Tasks: Suitable for multiple audio tasks such as Automatic Speech Recognition, Speaker Identification, Intent Classification, and Emotion Recognition.
- High - efficiency: Based on the SEW architecture, it has significant improvements in both performance and efficiency compared to wav2vec 2.0.

đģ Usage Examples
Basic Usage
To transcribe audio files, the model can be used as a standalone acoustic model as follows:
from transformers import Wav2Vec2Processor, SEWForCTC
from datasets import load_dataset
import soundfile as sf
import torch
processor = Wav2Vec2Processor.from_pretrained("asapp/sew-tiny-100k-ft-ls100h")
model = SEWForCTC.from_pretrained("asapp/sew-tiny-100k-ft-ls100h")
ds = load_dataset("patrickvonplaten/librispeech_asr_dummy", "clean", split="validation")
input_values = processor(ds[0]["audio"]["array"], return_tensors="pt").input_values
logits = model(input_values).logits
predicted_ids = torch.argmax(logits, dim=-1)
transcription = processor.batch_decode(predicted_ids)
Advanced Usage
This code snippet shows how to evaluate asapp/sew - tiny - 100k - ft - ls100h on LibriSpeech's "clean" and "other" test data.
from datasets import load_dataset
from transformers import SEWForCTC, Wav2Vec2Processor
import torch
from jiwer import wer
librispeech_eval = load_dataset("librispeech_asr", "clean", split="test")
model = SEWForCTC.from_pretrained("asapp/sew-tiny-100k-ft-ls100h").to("cuda")
processor = Wav2Vec2Processor.from_pretrained("asapp/sew-tiny-100k-ft-ls100h")
def map_to_pred(batch):
input_values = processor(batch["audio"][0]["array"], sampling_rate=16000,
return_tensors="pt", padding="longest").input_values
with torch.no_grad():
logits = model(input_values.to("cuda")).logits
predicted_ids = torch.argmax(logits, dim=-1)
transcription = processor.batch_decode(predicted_ids)
batch["transcription"] = transcription
return batch
result = librispeech_eval.map(map_to_pred, batched=True, batch_size=1, remove_columns=["audio"])
print("WER:", wer(result["text"], result["transcription"]))
Result (WER):
"clean" |
"other" |
10.61 |
23.74 |
