Conformer Transducer Languages of Spain

BSC's LoS Conformer adapts NVIDIA's Spanish Conformer Transducer to four languages of Spain.

Model and training

The parent is nvidia/stt_es_conformer_transducer_large. BSC fine-tuned it on about 2,700 hours of Catalan, Spanish, Galician and Basque speech. The model has roughly 120 million parameters and produces lowercase, unpunctuated text. The card uses NVIDIA NeMo for inference. BSC's contribution is multilingual training, not the original Conformer architecture.Conformer Transducer Languages of Spain: official model card

Practical use

Practical guidance. This smaller recogniser is relevant when serving resources constrain a Whisper deployment. Compare word errors for each language and record the audio segmentation used. Keep the recogniser's plain output separate from any punctuation or text-normalisation stage added by the application.
