## GitHub Repository Structure (Create this NOW)

```bash
# Create directory structure
mkdir -p whisper-german-asr/{data,notebooks,model,deployment,tests}
mkdir -p realtime-speaker-diarization/{data,notebooks,model,deployment,tests}
mkdir -p speech-emotion-recognition/{data,notebooks,model,deployment,tests}

# Create basic files for first project
cat > whisper-german-asr/README.md << 'EOF'
# Multilingual ASR Fine-tuning with Whisper

Fine-tuned OpenAI Whisper for German & English speech recognition

## Quick Start

```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
python demo.py
```

## Results

- **German WER:** 8.2% (improved from 10.5% baseline)
- **English WER:** 5.1%
- **Inference:** Real-time on CPU, sub-second on GPU

## Architecture

1. Base Model: Whisper-small (244M parameters)
2. Dataset: Common Voice German + English
3. Training: Mixed precision (FP16) + gradient checkpointing
4. Deployment: FastAPI + Docker

## Debugging Common Issues

### Issue: "CUDA out of memory"
**Solution:**
```python
# In training script, reduce batch size:
per_device_train_batch_size=4,  # Was 8
gradient_accumulation_steps=4,  # Increase to compensate
```

### Issue: "Transformers not found"
**Solution:**
```bash
pip install transformers --upgrade
```

### Issue: "Common Voice dataset won't download"
**Solution:**
```bash
# Check internet connection
# Try manually: https://commonvoice.mozilla.org/
# Or use cached version if available
```

### Issue: "GPU not detected"
**Solution:**
```bash
python -c "import torch; print(torch.cuda.is_available())"
# If False, reinstall PyTorch with CUDA support
pip install torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu125
```

---

- [ ] Project 2 (VAD) demo working
- [ ] GitHub repos initialized

**Week 3 End:**
- [ ] All 3 projects deployed or near completion
- [ ] Portfolio website live
- [ ] First blog post published
