# mHuBERT-147 models

mHuBERT-147 are compact and competitive multilingual HuBERT models trained on 90K hours of open-license data in 147 languages. 
Different from *traditional* HuBERTs, mHuBERT-147 models are trained using faiss IVF discrete speech units. 
Training employs a two-level language, data source up-sampling during training. See more information in [our paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2406.06371).

**This repository contains:**
* Fairseq checkpoint (original);
* HuggingFace checkpoint (conversion using transformers library);
* Faiss index for continuous pre-training (OPQ16_64,IVF1000_HNSW32,PQ16x4fsr).

**Related Models:**
* [3rd Iteration mHuBERT-147](https://huggingface.co/utter-project/mHuBERT-147) (best)
* [2nd Iteration mHuBERT-147](https://huggingface.co/utter-project/mHuBERT-147-base-2nd-iter)
* [HUTTER-12 CommonVoice Prototype (12 languages)](https://huggingface.co/utter-project/hutter-12-3rd-base)

# Training

* **[Manifest list available here.](https://huggingface.co/utter-project/mHuBERT-147-base-3rd-iter/tree/main/manifest)** Please note that since training, there were CommonVoice removal requests. This means that some of the listed files are no longer available.

* **[Fairseq fork](https://github.com/utter-project/fairseq)** contains the scripts for training with multilingual batching with two-level up-sampling.

* **[Scripts for pre-processing/faiss clustering available here.](https://github.com/utter-project/mHuBERT-147-scripts)** 

# ML-SUPERB Scores

mHubert-147 reaches second and first position in the 10min and 1h leaderboards respectively. We achieve new SOTA scores for three LID tasks.
See more information in [our paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2406.06371).
