An Embarrassingly Simple Approach for LLM with Strong ASR Capacity

no code implementations13 Feb 2024 Ziyang Ma, Guanrou Yang, Yifan Yang, Zhifu Gao, JiaMing Wang, Zhihao Du, Fan Yu, Qian Chen, Siqi Zheng, Shiliang Zhang, Xie Chen

We found that delicate designs are not necessary, while an embarrassingly simple composition of off-the-shelf speech encoder, LLM, and the only trainable linear projector is competent for the ASR task.
