parakeet-tdt-1.1b unable to calculate ASR confidence scores!
TDTs are a recent model, and not all models support all features (due to architecture or training loss). We will look into it, but for now confidence metrics are computable only on rnnt and ctc models.  Thank you! The TDT model is very impressive, and would love to switch to it, but our application requires confidence metrics. Thanks for looking into it! Hey NeMo  team! Just following up on using confidence scores from TDT-1.1b model. This is a key enabler for our project. Hi @asifjahmed
We are working on it. However, please consider that TDT confidence estimation is neither formally defined nor easily supported by the NeMo design. So, my estimate for this feature is ~2 weeks. Hey @GNroy -

Thanks very much for the update! With a timeframe in mind I can plan accordingly. Thanks and looking forward to migrating to the awesome TDT model soon. This issue is stale because it has been open for 30 days with no activity. Remove stale label or comment or this will be closed in 7 days. Hi, I saw this was just marked as completed! Great! Can you link to the commit or LMK how to use this? Thank you! You need to add `include_duration_confidence=True` to the decoding config. @GNroy are docs updated on how to use this feature.  TDT confidence does not require additional parameters by default. It runs just like a regular confidence estimation.
`tdt_include_duration` is an optional flag indicating that TDT confidence will be computed with consideration of duration probabilities as well. Awesome work @GNroy ! We need to add the comment about tdt include duration flag to the docs for confidence estimation  I did add documentation about the flag (e.g. https://github.com/NVIDIA/NeMo/blob/b1628cf231eff0ca96a94b5f840b0dcbb7f2d667/nemo/collections/asr/parts/submodules/rnnt_decoding.py#L99) and also mentioned it in the confidence tutorial. Perfect thanks !
When following the NeMo tutorial for ASR Confidence (https://github.com/NVIDIA/NeMo/blob/main/tutorials/asr/ASR_Confidence_Estimation.ipynb)

I am able to obtain confidence scores from both "parakeet-rnnt-1.1b" as well as "parakeet-ctc-0.6b". However I am unable to get the same results when using "parakeet-tdt-1.1b" and I get the following exception:
