Dataset

(↑up to contents)

We use dataset spatialize_wsj0-mix, which can be created following [link]

Installation

(↑up to contents)

Requirement installation:

pip install -r requirements.txt

This recipe requires a modified version of asteroid-filterbanks. The script run.sh will automatically download these requirements in the current directory.

Paths should be modified according to your environment : The json dataset

sed -i 's?/path/to/dataset?YOUR_PATH?g' data/2speakers/wav8k/*/*/*.json

The run.sh :

python_path=YOUR_PYTHON_PATH

Train

(↑up to contents)

we recommend running :

./run.sh --id 0,1,2,3

Test

(↑up to contents)

You can give a strict check by running :

./run.sh --tag $tag --id $id --test_stage $test_stage --stage 6

Results

(↑up to contents)

The following results are obtained using strict check Stage=6. We use acoustic models trained by the script from SMS-WSJ. The decode script can be called like

./asr_decodespwsj2/run_decode.sh $ROOT/ConvTasNet_parcoder2_snr_serial3/exp/train_convtasnet_reverb2reverb_8kmin_823e6963noncausal/examples_strictcheck1bfs

We recommend you put asr_decodespwsj2 into SMS-WSJ directory.
