Loading requires the custom modeling code in the [gc_lora repository](https://github.com/balaji1312/gc_lora); see `src/bin/decode_asr.py` there for loading and decoding. ## Citation ```bibtex @inproceedings{shankar2026gclora, author = {Shankar, Natarajan Balaji and Wang, Zilai and Zhang, Kaiyuan and Shi, Mohan and Alwan, Abeer}, title = {{GC-LoRA}: Gated Convolutional {LoRA} for Parameter-Efficient Acoustic Adaptation}, booktitle = {Interspeech 2026}, year = {2026}, } ```
