Fine-tune wave2vec trained checkpoint
The tutorial of wav2vec says that the encoder model was originally trained on the common voice dataset. but all the fine-tuning tasks were trained on datasets from common voice. When fine-tuning wav2vec2 model, we fine-tuning the final linear classification layer only, right? 

If this is the case, why don't you release the lm.weights and lm.biese for each language? 

I am asking because I have a fine-tuned wav2vec2 model and it is doing very well. I want to fine-tune only the last liner layer, without initializing with random values. How can I load the lm.weights and lm.biese from a checkpoint? 


I tried to load the pre-trained checkpoint like this 
```
import torch 
state_dict = torch.load('./eng_asr/pytorch_model.bin', map_location='cpu')
```

Then initialize a new pre-trained model

```
import torch 
model = Wav2Vec2ForCTC.from_pretrained(f'facebook/wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53', 
                                       vocab_size=processor.tokenizer.vocab_size, 
                                      pad_token_id=processor.tokenizer.pad_token_id)
model.freeze_feature_extractor()
model.load_state_dict(state_dict)

```

At this stage, I'm loading the weights of my checkpoint to facebook/wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53. 

Then, I set the training arguments

```
training_args = TrainingArguments(  
    output_dir=repo_name,
    group_by_length=True,
    length_column_name = 'input_length',
    per_device_train_batch_size=2,
    per_device_eval_batch_size=2,
    gradient_accumulation_steps=1,
    evaluation_strategy="steps",
    num_train_epochs=10,
    fp16=True,
    save_steps=500,
    eval_steps=500,
    logging_steps=500,
    learning_rate=5e-4,
    warmup_steps=500,
    save_total_limit=4,
)

```

then, when I initialize Trainer, it takes like 3G of the GPU memory 

```
trainer = Trainer(
    model=model,
    data_collator=data_collator,
    args=training_args,
    compute_metrics=compute_metrics,
    train_dataset=train_data,
    eval_dataset=test_data,
    tokenizer=processor.feature_extractor
)

```

When I hit train, regardless of the batch size, I get out of memory. I have 24G GPU RAM. I don't understand why the memory gone in one second!
cc @anton-l <|||||>Hi @Omarnabk! The model is actually pretrained with an unsupervised objective (it never saw the target transcriptions) which is why there are no official pretrained LM heads available :slightly_smiling_face: 

As far as I can see, you're doing everything correctly, but the audio clips in your dataset might be too long for the model to process on a 24G GPU. Try chunking your data into sentences, or filtering speech samples that are larger than about 20sec.

Let me know if I understood your case correctly :slightly_smiling_face: <|||||>This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. If you think this still needs to be addressed please comment on this thread.
