# wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53-faroese-100h
The "wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53-faroese-100h" is an acoustic model suitable for Automatic Speech Recognition in Faroese. It is the result of fine-tuning the model "facebook/wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53" with 100 hours of Faroese data released by the Ravnur Project (https://maltokni.fo/en/) from the Faroe Islands.
The specific dataset used to create the model is called "Ravnursson Faroese Speech and Transcripts" and it is available at http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12537/276.
The fine-tuning process was perform during November (2022) in the servers of the Language and Voice Lab (https://lvl.ru.is/) at Reykjavík University (Iceland) by Carlos Daniel Hernández Mena.
