ESPnet3 Inference Provider

InferenceProvider is the convenience provider base for inference-time dataset/model construction.

Implementation:

• espnet3.parallel.inference_provider.InferenceProvider

What subclasses implement

• build_dataset(config)
• build_model(config)

InferenceProvider then builds an environment containing:

• dataset
• model
• any extra params

Notes

• local execution reuses a cached local environment
• worker execution rebuilds the environment through build_worker_setup_fn()
