What it supplies: The README presents ESPnet as a PyTorch toolkit for many speech tasks.
Useful for: - Transcribe audio with a pretrained model from the command line.
- Train or reproduce models with the recipes and model zoo.
- Cover text-to-speech, translation, enhancement and diarization tasks.
First action: - Install PyTorch first, then pip install espnet.
- Run espnet asr audio.wav on a file.
Prerequisites and limits: PyTorch must be installed first. The README text read gives no Python version; see the installation guide.
- Training needs the extra espnet[train] install.
- Recipes and datasets have separate licences.
The README text read does not name the licence in prose, so check the repository licence file. Pretrained models carry their own terms.
Written from the README text only. Statements are as the README gives them; nothing was installed or run.
Based on opening, install and licence badge README text only; other sections were not read in full. Nothing was installed or run.
