What is ultravox-v0_4_1-mistral-nemo?
Ultravox is an advanced multimodal Speech LLM that combines the power of Mistral-Nemo-Instruct-2407 and whisper-large-v3-turbo backbones. This innovative model can process both speech and text inputs, making it particularly versatile for various applications. It operates using a special <|audio|> pseudo-token system that seamlessly integrates audio embeddings with text processing.
Implementation Details
The model utilizes a sophisticated architecture where only the multi-modal adapter is trained while keeping the Whisper encoder and Mistral components frozen. It employs knowledge-distillation loss for training, where it aims to match the logits of the text-based Mistral backbone. Training was conducted using BF16 mixed precision on 8x H100 GPUs.
