Description
NoFA is a forced alignment model for Norwegian Bokmål, created by Nate Young (https://www.nateyoung.se/) for The Language Bank. This model is specifically made for the Montreal Forced Aligner (MFA), https://montreal-forced-aligner.readthedocs.io/.
Forced alignment refers to algorithms that take an audio file with speech and an orthographic transcription of the speech as input and produce a phonetic transcript where each segment (each phone) is time-aligned with the audio file.
NoFA is trained on The Language Bank's speech database NB Tale and the phonetic part of the RUNDKAST database developed at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU).
See the documentation file for further information about NoFA.
