 The NEST framework is designed for speech self-supervised learning, which can be used as a frozen speech feature extractor or as weight initialization for downstream speech processing tasks. The NEST-XL model has about 600M parameters and is trained on an English dataset of roughly 100K hours.  <br>
 This model is ready for commercial/non-commercial use.  <br>

 ## Model Architecture
 
-**Architecture Type:** NEST [1]  <br>
+The [NEST](https://arxiv.org/abs/2408.13106) framework comprises several building blocks, as illustrated in the left part of the following figure. Once trained, the NEST encoder can be used as weight initialization or feature extractor for downstream speech processing tasks.
