The original ASR module is based on [Baidu's DeepSpeech](https://arxiv.org/abs/1412.5567) which is an independent product named [DeepSpeech](https://deepspeech.readthedocs.io). However, the toolkit aligns almost all the SoTA modules in the pipeline. Specifically, these modules are

The grid search will print the WER (word error rate) or CER (character error rate) at each point in the hyper-parameters space, and draw the error surface optionally. A proper hyper-parameters range should include the global minima of the error surface for WER/CER, as illustrated in the following figure.
