Model Card for Model ID

We explore benefits of unsupervised pretraining of wav2vec 2.0 (W2V2) using large-scale unlabeled home recordings collected using LittleBeats (LB) and LENA (Language Environment Analysis) devices. LittleBeats is a new infant wearable multi-modal device that we developed, which simultaneously records audio, movement of the infant, as well as heart-rate variablity. We use W2V2 to advance LB audio pipeline such that it automatically provides reliable labels of speaker diarization and vocalization classifications for family members, including infants, parents, and siblings, at home. We show that W2V2 pretrained on thousands hours of large-scale unlabeled home audio outperforms oracle W2V2 pretrained on 960 hours Librispeech released by Facebook/Meta in terms of automatic family audio analysis tasks.

Towards Robust Family-Infant Audio Analysis Based on Unsupervised Pretraining of Wav2vec 2.0 on Large-Scale Unlabeled Family Audio

Model Description

Two versions of pretrained W2V2 models using fairseq are available:

LB_1100/checkpoint_best.pt: pretrained using 1100-hour of LB home recordings collected from 110 families of children under 5-year-old
LL_4300/checkpoint_best.pt: pretrained using 1100-hour of LB home recordings collected from 110 families + 3200-hour of LENA home recordings from 275 families of children under 5-year-old

One version of fine-tuned W2V2 models on labeled LB and LENA data using SpeechBrain is available:

LL_4300_fine_tuned: pretrained on LL_4300 checkpoint and followed by fine-tuning on labeled LB and LENA home recordings + labeled lab recordings with data augmentation

Two pretrained ECAPA-TDNN speaker embeddings are available:

ECAPA_TDNN_LB/embedding_model.ckpt: pretrained using 12-hour of labeled LB home recordings collected from 22 families of infants under 14-month-old
ECAPA_TDNN_LB_LENA/embedding_model.ckpt: pretrained using 12-hour of labeled LB home recordings collected from 22 families + 18-hour of labeled LENA home recordings from 30 families of infants under 14-month-old

Uses

We develop our complete fine-tuning recipe using SpeechBrain toolkit available at

https://github.com/jialuli3/wav2vec_LittleBeats_LENA

Quick Start

To extract features from pretrained W2V2 model, first install fairseq and speechbrain framework


    pip install fairseq
    pip install speechbrain

Download this code snippet (fairseq_wav2vec.py) in this repo. Download the pretrained or fine-tuned model weights. Run the following sample code by importing the FairseqWav2Vec2 class.


  from fairseq_wav2vec import FairseqWav2Vec2
  import torch 
  inputs = torch.rand([10, 6000]) # input wav B x T
  save_path = "your/path/to/LL_4300/checkpoint_best.pt"
  # extract features from all transformer layers
  model = FairseqWav2Vec2(save_path) # Output all features from 12 transformer layers with shapes of 12 x B x T' x D
  # To extract features from a certain transformer layer
  # model = FairseqWav2Vec2(save_path, output_all_hiddens = False, tgt_layer = [1]) # Output features from the first transformer layer
  # to load W2V2 model fine-tuned on LENA and LB audio data
  fine_tuned_path = "your/path/to/LL_4300_fine_tuned/save/CKPT+2022-11-26+14-06-17+00/wav2vec2.ckpt"
  model._load_sb_pretrained_w2v2_parameters(fine_tuned_path)
  # To extract wav2vec features
  outputs = model(inputs)
  print(outputs.shape)

Evaluation

We test 4 unlabeled datasets on unsupervised pretrained W2V2-base models:

base (oracle version): originally released version pretrained on ~960-hour unlabeled Librispeech audio
Libri960h: oracle version fine-tuned using 960h Librispeech
LB1100h: pretrain W2V2 using 1100h LB home recordings
LL4300h: pretrain W2V2 using 4300h LB+LENA home recordings We then fine-tune pretrained models on 11.7h of LB labeled home recordings, the f1 scores across three tasks are

Additionally, we improve our model performances by adding relevant labeled home recordings and using data augmentation techniques of SpecAug and noise/reverberation corruption. For more details of experiments and results, please refer to our paper.
