Pipeline Configuration#
In the simplest use case, you can deploy an ASR pipeline to be used with the StreamingRecognize
API call (refer to riva/proto/riva_asr.proto) without any language model as follows:
riva-build speech_recognition \
/servicemaker-dev/<rmir_filename>:<encryption_key> \
/servicemaker-dev/<riva_filename>:<encryption_key> \
--name=<pipeline_name> \
--wfst_tokenizer_model=<wfst_tokenizer_model> \
--wfst_verbalizer_model=<wfst_verbalizer_model> \
--decoder_type=greedy
where:
<rmir_filename>
is the Rivarmir
file that is generated<riva_filename>
is the name of theriva
file to use as input<encryption_key>
is the encryption key used during the export of the.riva
file<name>
,<acoustic_model_name>
and<featurizer_name>
are optional user-defined names for the components in the model repository.<wfst_tokenizer_model>
is the name of the WFST tokenizer model file to use for inverse text normalization of ASR transcripts. Refer to Inverse Text Normalization for more details.<wfst_verbalizer_model>
is the name of the WFST verbalizer model file to use for inverse text normalization of ASR transcripts. Refer to Inverse Text Normalization for more details.decoder_type
is the type of decoder to use. Valid values areflashlight
,os2s
,greedy
. We recommend usingflashlight
. Refer to Decoder Hyper-Parameters for more details.
Upon successful completion of this command, a file named <rmir_filename>
is created in the /servicemaker-dev/
folder. Since
no language model is specified, the Riva greedy decoder is used to predict the transcript based on the output of the acoustic model. If your .riva
archives are encrypted you need to include :<encryption_key>
at the end of the RMIR filename and Riva filename. Otherwise, this is unnecessary.
For embedded platforms, using a batch size of 1 is recommended since it achieves the lowest memory footprint. To use a batch size of 1, refer to the riva-build-optional-parameters section and set the various max_batch_size
and max_execution_batch_size
parameters to 1 while executing the riva-build
command.
The following summary lists the riva-build
commands used to generate the RMIR files from the Quick Start scripts for different models, modes, and their limitations:

You can easily customize your deployment by specifying your own language model and your own decoder lexicon files for example.

Streaming/Offline Recognition#
The Riva ASR pipeline can be configured for both streaming and offline recognition use cases. When using the StreamingRecognize
API call (refer to riva/proto/riva_asr.proto), we recommend the following riva-build
parameters for low-latency streaming recognition:
riva-build speech_recognition \
/servicemaker-dev/<rmir_filename>:<encryption_key> \
/servicemaker-dev/<riva_filename>:<encryption_key> \
--name=<pipeline_name> \
--wfst_tokenizer_model=<wfst_tokenizer_model> \
--wfst_verbalizer_model=<wfst_verbalizer_model> \
--decoder_type=greedy \
--chunk_size=0.16 \
--padding_size=1.92 \
--ms_per_timestep=80 \
--greedy_decoder.asr_model_delay=-1 \
--vad.residue_blanks_at_start=-2 \
--featurizer.use_utterance_norm_params=False \
--featurizer.precalc_norm_time_steps=0 \
--featurizer.precalc_norm_params=False
For high throughput streaming recognition with the StreamingRecognize
API call, chunk_size
and padding_size
can be set as follows:
riva-build speech_recognition \
/servicemaker-dev/<rmir_filename>:<encryption_key> \
/servicemaker-dev/<riva_filename>:<encryption_key> \
--name=<pipeline_name> \
--wfst_tokenizer_model=<wfst_tokenizer_model> \
--wfst_verbalizer_model=<wfst_verbalizer_model> \
--decoder_type=greedy \
--chunk_size=0.8 \
--padding_size=1.6 \
--ms_per_timestep=80 \
--greedy_decoder.asr_model_delay=-1 \
--vad.residue_blanks_at_start=-2 \
--featurizer.use_utterance_norm_params=False \
--featurizer.precalc_norm_time_steps=0 \
--featurizer.precalc_norm_params=False
Finally, to configure the ASR pipeline for offline recognition with the Recognize
API call (refer to riva/proto/riva_asr.proto), we recommend the following settings:
riva-build speech_recognition \
/servicemaker-dev/<rmir_filename>:<encryption_key> \
/servicemaker-dev/<riva_filename>:<encryption_key> \
--offline \
--name=<pipeline_name> \
--wfst_tokenizer_model=<wfst_tokenizer_model> \
--wfst_verbalizer_model=<wfst_verbalizer_model> \
--decoder_type=greedy \
--chunk_size=900. \
--padding_size=0. \
--ms_per_timestep=80 \
--greedy_decoder.asr_model_delay=-1 \
--vad.residue_blanks_at_start=-2 \
--featurizer.use_utterance_norm_params=False \
--featurizer.precalc_norm_time_steps=0 \
--featurizer.precalc_norm_params=False
Note
When deploying the offline ASR models with riva-deploy
, TensorRT warnings indicating that memory requirements of format conversion cannot be satisfied might appear in the logs. These warnings should not affect functionality and can be ignored.
In offline mode, the riva-build
command allows transcribing audio files up to 900 seconds (15 minutes) long.
It is possible to increase the chunk_size
parameter to larger values, however, this increases the GPU
memory usage of the offline ASR pipeline when deployed. Ensure you tune this value based on the number of models
deployed, the memory capacity of the GPU used, and the maximum duration of the audio to transcribe in offline mode.
To transcribe audio files that are longer than the maximum allowable duration in offline mode, revert to
using the high throughput streaming recognition and the StreamingRecognize
API. This offline mode limitation
will be addressed in a future version of Riva.
Language Models#
Riva ASR supports decoding with an n-gram language model. The n-gram language model can be provided in a few different ways.
A
.riva
file exported from TAO Toolkit.A
.arpa
format file.A KenLM binary format file.
For more information on building language models, refer to the Training Language Models section.
TAO Toolkit n-gram Language Model#
When using a language model exported from TAO Toolkit, specify the language model by running the following riva-build
command:
riva-build speech_recognition \
/servicemaker-dev/<jmir_filename>:<encryption_key> \
/servicemaker-dev/<riva_filename>:<encryption_key> \
/servicemaker-dev/<n_gram_riva_filename>:<encryption_key> \
--name=<pipeline_name> \
--wfst_tokenizer_model=<wfst_tokenizer_model> \
--wfst_verbalizer_model=<wfst_verbalizer_model> \
--decoder_type=flashlight \
--chunk_size=0.16 \
--padding_size=1.92 \
--ms_per_timestep=80 \
--flashlight_decoder.asr_model_delay=-1 \
--vad.residue_blanks_at_start=-2 \
--featurizer.use_utterance_norm_params=False \
--featurizer.precalc_norm_time_steps=0 \
--featurizer.precalc_norm_params=False \
--decoding_vocab=<decoder_vocab_file>
where decoder_vocab_file
is the vocabulary used by the Flashlight lexicon decoder. The vocabulary file must contain one vocabulary word per line. A sample
vocabulary file (flashlight_decoder_vocab.txt
) can be downloaded from Riva ASR English LM.
ARPA Format Language Model#
To configure the Riva ASR pipeline to use an n-gram language model stored in arpa
format, run:
riva-build speech_recognition \
/servicemaker-dev/<jmir_filename>:<encryption_key> \
/servicemaker-dev/<riva_filename>:<encryption_key> \
--name=<pipeline_name> \
--wfst_tokenizer_model=<wfst_tokenizer_model> \
--wfst_verbalizer_model=<wfst_verbalizer_model> \
--decoder_type=flashlight \
--chunk_size=0.16 \
--padding_size=1.92 \
--ms_per_timestep=80 \
--flashlight_decoder.asr_model_delay=-1 \
--vad.residue_blanks_at_start=-2 \
--featurizer.use_utterance_norm_params=False \
--featurizer.precalc_norm_time_steps=0 \
--featurizer.precalc_norm_params=False \
--decoding_language_model_arpa=<arpa_filename> \
--decoding_vocab=<decoder_vocab_file>
KenLM Binary Language Model#
To generate the Riva RMIR file when using a KenLM binary file to specify the language model, run:
riva-build speech_recognition \
/servicemaker-dev/<jmir_filename>:<encryption_key> \
/servicemaker-dev/<riva_filename>:<encryption_key> \
--name=<pipeline_name> \
--wfst_tokenizer_model=<wfst_tokenizer_model> \
--wfst_verbalizer_model=<wfst_verbalizer_model> \
--decoder_type=flashlight \
--chunk_size=0.16 \
--padding_size=1.92 \
--ms_per_timestep=80 \
--flashlight_decoder.asr_model_delay=-1 \
--vad.residue_blanks_at_start=-2 \
--featurizer.use_utterance_norm_params=False \
--featurizer.precalc_norm_time_steps=0 \
--featurizer.precalc_norm_params=False \
--decoding_language_model_binary=<KENLM_binary_filename> \
--decoding_vocab=<decoder_vocab_file>
Decoder Hyper-Parameters#
The decoder language model hyper-parameters can also be specified from the riva-build
command.
You can specify the Flashlight decoder hyper-parameters
beam_size
, beam_size_token
, beam_threshold
, lm_weight
and word_insertion_score
as follows:
riva-build speech_recognition \
/servicemaker-dev/<jmir_filename>:<encryption_key> \
/servicemaker-dev/<riva_filename>:<encryption_key> \
--name=<pipeline_name> \
--wfst_tokenizer_model=<wfst_tokenizer_model> \
--wfst_verbalizer_model=<wfst_verbalizer_model> \
--decoder_type=flashlight \
--chunk_size=0.16 \
--padding_size=1.92 \
--ms_per_timestep=80 \
--flashlight_decoder.asr_model_delay=-1 \
--vad.residue_blanks_at_start=-2 \
--featurizer.use_utterance_norm_params=False \
--featurizer.precalc_norm_time_steps=0 \
--featurizer.precalc_norm_params=False \
--decoding_language_model_binary=<arpa_filename> \
--decoding_vocab=<decoder_vocab_file> \
--flashlight_decoder.beam_size=<beam_size> \
--flashlight_decoder.beam_size_token=<beam_size_token> \
--flashlight_decoder.beam_threshold=<beam_threshold> \
--flashlight_decoder.lm_weight=<lm_weight> \
--flashlight_decoder.word_insertion_score=<word_insertion_score>
where:
beam_size
is the maximum number of hypothesis the decoder holds at each stepbeam_size_token
is the maximum number of tokens the decoder considers at each stepbeam_threshold
is the threshold to prune hypothesislm_weight
is the weight of the language model used when scoring hypothesisword_insertion_score
is the word insertion score used when scoring hypothesis
For advanced users, additional decoder hyper-parameters can also be specified. Refer to Riva-build Optional Parameters for a list of those parameters and their description.
Flashlight Decoder Lexicon#
The Flashlight decoder used in Riva is a lexicon-based decoder and only emits words that are present in the decoder vocabulary file passed to the riva-build
command. The decoder vocabulary file
used to generate the ASR pipelines in the Quick Start scripts include words that cover a wide range of domains and should provide accurate transcripts for most applications.
It is also possible to build an ASR pipeline using your own decoder vocabulary file by using the parameter --decoding_vocab
of the riva-build
command.
For example, you could start with the riva-build
commands used to generate the ASR pipelines in our Quick Start scripts from section Pipeline Configuration and provide your own lexicon decoder vocabulary file.
You will need to ensure that words of interest are in the decoder vocabulary file. The Riva ServiceMaker automatically tokenizes the words in the decoder vocabulary file.
The number of tokenization for each word in the decoder vocabulary file can be controlled with the --flashlight_decoder.num_tokenization
parameter.
(Advanced) Manually Adding Additional Tokenizations of Words in Lexicon#
It is also possible to manually add additional tokenizations for the words in the decoder vocabulary by performing the following steps:
The riva-build
and riva-deploy
commands provided in the previous section store the lexicon in the /data/models/citrinet-1024-en-US-asr-streaming-ctc-decoder-cpu-streaming/1/lexicon.txt
file of the Triton model repository.
To add additional tokenizations to the lexicon, copy the lexicon file:
cp /data/models/citrinet-1024-en-US-asr-streaming-ctc-decoder-cpu-streaming/1/lexicon.txt decoding_lexicon.txt
and add the SentencePiece tokenization for the word of interest. For example, you could add:
manu ▁ma n u
manu ▁man n n ew
manu ▁man n ew
to the decoding_lexicon.txt
file so that the word manu
is generated in the transcript if the acoustic model predicts those tokens. You will need to ensure that the new lines follow the indentation/space pattern like the rest of the file and that the tokens used are part of the tokenizer model. After this is done, regenerate the model repository using the new decoding lexicon by passing --decoding_lexicon=decoding_lexicon.txt
to riva-build
instead of --decoding_vocab=decoding_vocab.txt
.
Beginning/End of Utterance Detection#
Riva ASR uses an algorithm that detects the beginning and end of utterances. This algorithm is used to reset the ASR decoder
state, and to trigger a call to the punctuator model. By default, the beginning of an utterance is flagged when 20% of the frames in
a 300ms window has nonblank characters. The end of an utterance is flagged when 98% of the frames in a 800ms window are
blank characters. You can tune those values for their particular use case by using the following riva-build
parameters:
--vad.vad_start_history=300 \
--vad.vad_start_th=0.2 \
--vad.vad_stop_history=800 \
--vad.vad_stop_th=0.98
Additionally, it is possible to disable the beginning/end of utterance detection by passing --vad.vad_type=none
to riva-build
.
Note that in this case, the decoder state resets after the full audio signal has been sent by the client. Similarly, the punctuator model is only called once.
Generating Multiple Transcript Hypotheses#
By default, the Riva ASR pipeline is configured to only generate the best transcript hypothesis for
each utterance. It is possible to generate multiple transcript hypotheses by passing the parameter
--max_supported_transcripts=N
to the riva-build
command, where N
is the maximum number of
hypotheses to generate. With these changes, the client application can retrieve the multiple hypotheses
by setting the max_alternatives
field of RecognitionConfig
to values greater than 1.
(Advanced) Sharing Acoustic and Feature Extractor Models Across Multiple ASR Pipelines#
It is possible to configure the Riva ASR service such that multiple ASR pipelines share the same feature extractor and acoustic models, thus allowing to reduce GPU memory usage. This option can be used, for example, to deploy multiple ASR pipelines where each pipeline uses a different language model, but share the same acoustic model and feature extractor. This can be achieved by specifying the parameters acoustic_model_name
and featurizer_name
in the riva-build
command:
riva-build speech_recognition \
/servicemaker-dev/<rmir_filename>:<encryption_key> \
/servicemaker-dev/<riva_filename>:<encryption_key> \
--name=<pipeline_name> \
--acoustic_model_name=<acoustic_model_name> \
--featurizer_name=<featurizer_name> \
--wfst_tokenizer_model=<wfst_tokenizer_model> \
--wfst_verbalizer_model=<wfst_verbalizer_model> \
--decoder_type=greedy
where:
<acoustic_model_name>
is the user-defined name for the acoustic model component of the ASR pipeline
and
<featurizer_name>
is the user-defined name for the feature extractor component of the ASR pipeline
If multiple ASR pipelines are built, each with a different name
, but with the same acoustic_model_name
and featurizer_name
, they will share the same acoustic and feature extractor models.
Note
<acoustic_model_name>
and <featurizer_name>
are global and can conflict across model pipelines. Override this only in cases when you
know what other models will be deployed and you want to share the featurizer and/or acoustic models across different ASR pipelines. When specifying <acoustic_model_name>
you should make sure that there will not be any incompatibilities in acoustic model weights or input shapes. Similary, when specifying <featurizer_name>
, you should make sure that that all ASR pipelines with the same <featurizer_name>
use the same feature extractor parameters.
