# FunASR: A Fundamental End-to-End Speech Recognition Toolkit
FunASR hopes to build a bridge between academic research and industrial applications on speech recognition. By supporting the training & finetuning of the industrial-grade speech recognition model released on [ModelScope](https://www.modelscope.cn/models?page=1&tasks=auto-speech-recognition), researchers and developers can conduct research and production of speech recognition models more conveniently, and promote the development of speech recognition ecology. ASR for Fun!

1. We borrowed a lot of code from [Kaldi](http://kaldi-asr.org/) for data preparation.
2. We borrowed a lot of code from [ESPnet](https://github.com/espnet/espnet). FunASR follows up the training and finetuning pipelines of ESPnet.
3. We referred [Wenet](https://github.com/wenet-e2e/wenet) for building dataloader for large scale data training.
