The primary motivation of NeurST is to facilitate NLP researchers to get started on end-to-end speech translation (ST) and build advanced neural machine translation (NMT) models.

See here for a full list of NeurST examples. And we present recent progress of end-to-end ST technology at https://st-benchmark.github.io/.

NeurST is based on TensorFlow2 and we are working on the pytorch version.

Highlights

Pretrained Models & Performance Benchmarks

NeurST provides reference implementations of various models and benchmarks. Please see examples for model links and NeurST benchmark on different datasets.

Requirements and Installation

Install NeurST from source:

git clone https://github.com/bytedance/neurst.git
cd neurst/
pip3 install -e .

If there exists ImportError during running, manually install the required packages at that time.
