Wav2Vec2-Conformer-Large with Relative Position Embeddings

Wav2Vec2 Conformer with relative position embeddings, pretrained 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.

Note : This model does not have a tokenizer as it was pretrained on audio alone. In order to use this model speech recognition , a tokenizer should be created and the model should be fine-tuned on labeled text data. Check out this blog for more in-detail explanation of how to fine-tune the model.
