FormatLoadException Error during running build_binary command

[naimish101.viradia (naimish101.viradia@gmail.com)]

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to train very small model first to get my self used to with all the commands.

Language I am trying train is Gujarati. Is this issue with Unicode characters for my language?

I am using following tutorial,

Reference Guide:

TUTORIAL : How I trained a specific french model to control my robot

Tutorial How to build your homemade deepspeech model from scratch Adapt links and params with your needs… For my robotic project, I needed to create a small monospeaker model, with nearly 1000 sentences orders (not just single word !) I recorded wav’s with a Respeaker Microphone Array : https://www.seeedstudio.com/ReSpeaker-Mic-Array-Far-field-w%2F-7-PDM-Microphones-p-2719.html Wav’s were recorder with the following params : mono / 16 bits / 16 k. The use of the google vad lib helped me t…

Command:

Error:

Thanks in advance for help.

No, you are following an old tutorial instead of following uptodate documentation under data/lm

As suggested by error I added “-s” and it did worked fine. Please do we have some sort of guide where I can understand the actual reason behind this errors,

The ARPA file is missing <> then use of -s

and

Could not calculate Kneser-Ney discounts for 3-grams with adjusted count 4 because we didn’t observe any 3-grams with adjusted count 3; Is this small or artificial data?
Try deduplicating the input. To override this error for e.g. a class-based model, rerun with --discount_fallback

Thanks

Is it because of my small dataset?

Is it because of my small dataset?

Likely, yes, this is why.
