wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53-spanish-ep5-944h

The "wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53-spanish-ep5-944h" is an acoustic model suitable for Automatic Speech Recognition in Spanish. It is the result of fine-tuning the model "facebook/wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53" with around 944 hours of Spanish data gathered or developed by the CIEMPIESS-UNAM Project since 2012. Most of the data is available at the the CIEMPIESS-UNAM Project homepage http://www.ciempiess.org/. The rest can be found in public repositories such as LDC or OpenSLR

The specific list of corpora used to fine-tune the model is:

The fine-tuning process was perform during November (2022) in the servers of the Language and Voice Lab (https://lvl.ru.is/) at Reykjavík University (Iceland) by Carlos Daniel Hernández Mena.
