Wav2Vec2-Large-XLSR-53-Arabic

Fine-tuned facebook/wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53 on Arabic using the Common Voice. When using this model, make sure that your speech input is sampled at 16kHz.

Usage

The model can be used directly (without a language model) as follows:

import librosa
import torch
from lang_trans.arabic import buckwalter

from transformers import Wav2Vec2ForCTC, Wav2Vec2Processor

asr_model = "muzamil47/wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53-arabic-demo"
device = torch.device("cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu")


def load_file_to_data(file, srate=16_000):
    batch = {}
    speech, sampling_rate = librosa.load(file, sr=srate)
    batch["speech"] = speech
    batch["sampling_rate"] = sampling_rate
    return batch


processor = Wav2Vec2Processor.from_pretrained(asr_model)
model = Wav2Vec2ForCTC.from_pretrained(asr_model).to(device)


def predict(data):
    features = processor(data["speech"], sampling_rate=data["sampling_rate"], return_tensors="pt", padding=True)
    input_values = features.input_values.to(device)
    try:
        attention_mask = features.attention_mask.to(device)
    except:
        attention_mask = None
    with torch.no_grad():
        predicted = torch.argmax(model(input_values, attention_mask=attention_mask).logits, dim=-1)

    data["predicted"] = processor.tokenizer.decode(predicted[0])
    print("predicted:", buckwalter.untrans(data["predicted"]))
    return data

predict(load_file_to_data("common_voice_ar_19058307.mp3"))

Output Result:

predicted: هل يمكنني التحدث مع المسؤول هنا

Evaluation

The model can be evaluated as follows on the Arabic test data of Common Voice.

import torch
import torchaudio
from datasets import load_dataset
from lang_trans.arabic import buckwalter
from transformers import Wav2Vec2ForCTC, Wav2Vec2Processor

asr_model = "muzamil47/wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53-arabic-demo"

dataset = load_dataset("common_voice", "ar", split="test[:10]")

resamplers = {  # all three sampling rates exist in test split
    48000: torchaudio.transforms.Resample(48000, 16000),

    32000: torchaudio.transforms.Resample(32000, 16000),
}

def prepare_example(example):
    speech, sampling_rate = torchaudio.load(example["path"])
    example["speech"] = resamplers[sampling_rate](speech).squeeze().numpy()
    return example

dataset = dataset.map(prepare_example)
processor = Wav2Vec2Processor.from_pretrained(asr_model)
model = Wav2Vec2ForCTC.from_pretrained(asr_model).eval()

def predict(batch):
    inputs = processor(batch["speech"], sampling_rate=16000, return_tensors="pt", padding=True)
    with torch.no_grad():
        predicted = torch.argmax(model(inputs.input_values).logits, dim=-1)
    predicted[predicted == -100] = processor.tokenizer.pad_token_id  # see fine-tuning script
    batch["predicted"] = processor.tokenizer.batch_decode(predicted)
    return batch

dataset = dataset.map(predict, batched=True, batch_size=1, remove_columns=["speech"])

for reference, predicted in zip(dataset["sentence"], dataset["predicted"]):
    print("reference:", reference)
    print("predicted:", buckwalter.untrans(predicted))
    print("--")

Output Results:

predicted: ما تتعمتي منذو سنتين

reference: الألمانية ليست لغة سهلة.
predicted: الالمانية ليست لغة سهلة

predicted: السيد ايتو رجل متعلم

reference: الحمد لله.
predicted: الحمذ لللا

reference: في الوقت نفسه بدأت الرماح والسهام تقع بين الغزاة
predicted: في الوقت نفسه ابدات الرماح و السهام تقع بين الغزاء

reference: لا أريد أن أكون ثقيلَ الظِّل ، أريد أن أكون رائعًا! !
predicted: لا اريد ان اكون ثقيل الظل اريد ان اكون رائع
