Apply for community grant: Academic project (gpu)
Hi,
We are currently working on an academic project where we aim to release an open-source demo of cascaded spoken dialogue systems, built using open-source implementations of VAD, ASR, LLM, and TTS models. Unlike other demos, ours leverages Gradio, offering ease of distribution and accessibility. Additionally, the system features a modular, plug-and-play architecture, enabling the seamless integration of any open-source ASR, LLM, or TTS models, providing the research community with valuable insights into the limitations and trade-offs of cascaded approaches.
We would be incredibly grateful if you could support our research by providing free access to GPU resources. These resources would greatly enhance our ability to experiment, optimize, and deliver a robust demo that can benefit the community.
Thank you very much for your consideration. Please feel free to reach out if you need any further information or details about the project.
Looking forward to your positive response!
Best regards,
Siddhant Arora
