RNN, GRU, BiLSTM, and attention ASR on AfriSpeech-200 (Twi) and LibriSpeech, reported in WER and CER.

Automatic speech recognition pipelines in PyTorch and Torchaudio. Models include vanilla RNNs, attention-based RNNs, GRUs, and bidirectional LSTMs. Audio preprocessing uses MFCC and spectrogram features. One track trains on AfriSpeech-200 (Twi) with CTC loss; another benchmarks on LibriSpeech.

  • CTC training on AfriSpeech-200 Twi
  • MFCC and spectrogram feature extraction
  • WER and CER across recurrent families
