# DeepSpeech2: Optimized for Qualcomm Devices
DeepSpeech2 is an end-to-end automatic speech recognition (ASR) model. It uses convolutional layers for feature extraction followed by bidirectional recurrent layers and CTC for sequence-to-sequence learning.
This is based on the implementation of DeepSpeech2 found [here](https://github.com/SeanNaren/deepspeech.pytorch).
This repository contains pre-exported model files optimized for Qualcomm® devices. You can use the [Qualcomm® AI Hub Models](https://github.com/qualcomm/ai-hub-models/blob/v0.61.0/src/qai_hub_models/models/deepspeech2) library to export with custom configurations. More details on model performance across various devices, can be found [here](#performance-summary).
Qualcomm AI Hub Models uses [Qualcomm AI Hub Workbench](https://workbench.aihub.qualcomm.com) to compile, profile, and evaluate this model. [Sign up](https://myaccount.qualcomm.com/signup) to run these models on a hosted Qualcomm® device.
## Getting Started
There are two ways to deploy this model on your device:
### Option 1: Download Pre-Exported Models
Below are pre-exported model assets ready for deployment.
| Runtime | Precision | Chipset | SDK Versions | Download |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TFLITE | float | Universal | | [Download](https://qaihub-public-assets.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/qai-hub-models/models/deepspeech2/releases/v0.61.0/deepspeech2-tflite-float.zip)
For more device-specific assets and performance metrics, visit **[DeepSpeech2 on Qualcomm® AI Hub](https://aihub.qualcomm.com/models/deepspeech2)**.
### Option 2: Export with Custom Configurations
Use the [Qualcomm® AI Hub Models](https://github.com/qualcomm/ai-hub-models/blob/v0.61.0/src/qai_hub_models/models/deepspeech2) Python library to compile and export the model with your own:
- Custom weights (e.g., fine-tuned checkpoints)
- Custom input shapes
- Target device and runtime configurations
This option is ideal if you need to customize the model beyond the default configuration provided here.
See our repository for [DeepSpeech2 on GitHub](https://github.com/qualcomm/ai-hub-models/blob/v0.61.0/src/qai_hub_models/models/deepspeech2) for usage instructions.
