# XLS-R-300M-LM - Norwegian
This model is a fine-tuned version of [facebook/wav2vec2-xls-r-300m](https://huggingface.co/facebook/wav2vec2-xls-r-300m) on the Norwegian [NPSC](https://huggingface.co/datasets/NbAiLab/NPSC) dataset.
### Scores without Language Model
Without using a language model, it achieves the following scores on the NPSC Eval set
It achieves the following results on the evaluation set without a language model:
- WER: 0.2110
- CER: 0.0622
### Scores with Language Model
A 5-gram KenLM was added to boost the models performance. The language model was created on a corpus mainly consisting of online newspapers, public reports and Wikipedia data. After this we are getting these values.
- WER: 0.1540
- CER: 0.0548
## Team
The model is developed by Rolv-Arild Braaten, Per Egil Kummervold, Andre Kåsen, Javier de la Rosa, Per Erik Solberg, and Freddy Wetjen. Name in alphabetic order.
## Model description
This current version is based on checkpoint 8500 of [NbAiLab/wav2vec2-xlsr-300M-NPSC-OH](https://huggingface.co/NbAiLab/wav2vec2-xlsr-300M-NPSC-OH).
## Intended uses & limitations
Demo version only. The model will be updated later this week.
## Training and evaluation data
The model is trained and evaluated on [NPSC](https://huggingface.co/datasets/NbAiLab/NPSC). Unfortunately there is no Norwegian test data in Common Voice, and currently the model is only evaluated on the validation set of NPSC..
## Training procedure
