+# FLANEC: Exploring FLAN-T5 for Post-ASR Error Correction
+
+## Model Overview
+
+FLANEC is an encoder-decoder model based on FLAN-T5, specifically fine-tuned for post-Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) error correction, also known as Generative Speech Error Correction (GenSEC). The model utilizes n-best hypotheses from ASR systems to enhance the accuracy and grammaticality of final transcriptions by generating a single corrected output. FLANEC models are trained on diverse subsets of the [HyPoradise dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/PeacefulData/HyPoradise-v0), leveraging multiple ASR domains to provide robust, scalable error correction across different types of audio data.
+
+FLANEC was developed for the **GenSEC Task 1 challenge at SLT 2024** - [Challenge website](https://sites.google.com/view/gensec-challenge/home).
+
+## Model Checkpoints
+
+**Cumulative Dataset (CD) Models trained with full fine-tuning:**
+
+- [FLANEC Base CD](https://huggingface.co/morenolq/flanec-base-cd): Base model with ~250 million parameters, fine-tuned for post-ASR correction on cumulative datasets.
+- [FLANEC Large CD](https://huggingface.co/morenolq/flanec-large-cd): Large model with ~800 million parameters, fine-tuned for post-ASR correction on cumulative datasets.
+- [FLANEC XL CD](https://huggingface.co/morenolq/flanec-xl-cd): Extra-large model with ~3 billion parameters, fine-tuned for post-ASR correction on cumulative datasets.
+
+**Cumulative Dataset (CD) Models trained with Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA):**
+
+- [FLANEC Base LoRA](https://huggingface.co/morenolq/flanec-base-cd-lora): Base model with ~250 million parameters, fine-tuned with LoRA on cumulative datasets.
+- [FLANEC Large LoRA](https://huggingface.co/morenolq/flanec-large-cd-lora): Large model with ~800 million parameters, fine-tuned with LoRA on cumulative datasets.
+- [FLANEC XL LoRA](https://huggingface.co/morenolq/flanec-xl-cd-lora): Extra-large model with ~3 billion parameters, fine-tuned with LoRA on cumulative datasets.
+
+## Intended Use
+
+FLANEC is designed for the task of Generative Speech Error Correction (GenSEC). The model is suitable for post-processing ASR outputs to correct grammatical and linguistic errors. The model supports the **English** language.
+
+## Training Details
+
+### Datasets
+
+FLANEC is trained on the [HyPoradise dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/PeacefulData/HyPoradise-v0), which contains data from eight ASR domains:
+
+1. **WSJ**: Business and financial news.
+2. **ATIS**: Airline travel queries.
+3. **CHiME-4**: Noisy speech.
+4. **Tedlium-3**: TED talks.
+5. **CV-accent**: Accented speech.
+6. **SwitchBoard**: Conversational speech.
+7. **LRS2**: BBC program audio.
+8. **CORAAL**: Accented speech from African American English.
+
+For more details, see the [HyPoradise paper](https://proceedings.neurips.cc/paper_files/paper/2023/hash/6492267465a7ac507be1f9fd1174e78d-Abstract-Datasets_and_Benchmarks.html).
+
+### Training Strategy
+
+The model has been fine-tuned using both full fine-tuning and LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) methods. Fine-tuning was performed on multiple model scales, ranging from 250M to 3B parameters. Both single-dataset (SD) and cumulative dataset (CD) training approaches were employed to assess model performance across different ASR domains.
+
+For more information on the training strategy, refer to the SLT 2024 paper.
