# Fluent Speech Commands
The dataset contains real recordings that define a simple spoken language understanding task. You can download it from [here](https://fluent.ai/fluent-speech-commands-a-dataset-for-spoken-language-understanding-research/).
The Fluent Speech Commands dataset contains 30,043 utterances from 97 speakers. It is recorded as 16 kHz single-channel .wav files each containing a single utterance used for controlling smart-home appliances or virtual assistant, for example, “put on the music” or “turn up the heat in the kitchen”. Each audio is labeled with three slots: action, object, and location. A slot takes on one of the multiple values: for instance, the “location” slot can take on the values “none”, “kitchen”, “bedroom”, or “washroom”. We refer to the combination of slot values as the intent of the utterance. For each intent, there are multiple possible wordings: for example, the intent {action: “activate”, object: “lights”, location: “none”} can be expressed as “turn on the lights”, “switch the lights on”, “lights on”, etc. The dataset has a total of 248 phrasing mapping to 31 unique intents.
# End-to-end SLU model for Fluent Speech Commands
Attention-based RNN sequence-to-sequence model for the [Fluent Speech Commands](https://arxiv.org/pdf/1904.03670.pdf) dataset.
This model checkpoint achieves 99.6% accuracy on the test set.
The model uses an ASR model trained on LibriSpeech ([`speechbrain/asr-crdnn-rnnlm-librispeech`](https://huggingface.co/speechbrain/asr-crdnn-rnnlm-librispeech)) to extract features from the input audio, then maps these features to an intent and slot labels using a beam search.
You can try the model on the `example_fsc.wav` file included here as follows:
```python
from speechbrain.inference.SLU import EndToEndSLU
slu = EndToEndSLU.from_hparams("speechbrain/slu-direct-fluent-speech-commands-librispeech-asr")
# Text: "Please, turn on the light of the bedroom"
slu.decode_file("speechbrain/slu-direct-fluent-speech-commands-librispeech-asr/example_fsc.wav")
#>>> '{"action:" "activate"| "object": "lights"| "location": "bedroom"}'
```
The system is trained with recordings sampled at 16kHz (single channel).
The code will automatically normalize your audio (i.e., resampling + mono channel selection) when calling *decode_file* if needed. Make sure your input tensor is compliant with the expected sampling rate if you use *encode_batch* and *decode_batch*.
### Inference on GPU
To perform inference on the GPU, add `run_opts={"device":"cuda"}` when calling the `from_hparams` method.
### Training
The model was trained with SpeechBrain (f1f421b3).
To train it from scratch follows these steps:
1. Clone SpeechBrain:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/speechbrain/speechbrain/
```
2. Install it:
```
cd speechbrain
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .
```
3. Run Training:
```
cd recipes/fluent-speech-commands
python train.py hparams/train.yaml --data_folder=your_data_folder
```
You can find our training results (models, logs, etc) [here](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Zly54252Z218IHJQ9M0B3kTQPZIw_2yC?usp=sharing).
### Limitations
The SpeechBrain team does not provide any warranty on the performance achieved by this model when used on other datasets.
