The model expects a raw audio signal as input and outputs predictions for age in a range of approximately 0...1 (0...100 years) and gender expressing the probababilty for being child, female, or male. In addition, it also provides the pooled states of the last transformer layer. The model was created by fine-tuning Wav2Vec2-Large-Robust on aGender, Mozilla Common Voice, Timit and Voxceleb 2. For this version of the model we trained all 24 transformer layers. An ONNX export of the model is available from doi:10.5281/zenodo.7761387. Further details are given in the associated paper and tutorial.
