+To reproduce the above result, use the following commands for training:

+```bash
+export CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES="0,1"
+./zipformer/train_char.py \
+  --world-size 2 \
+  --num-epochs 30 \
+  --start-epoch 1 \

+  --language zh-HK \
+  --use-validated-set 1 \
+  --context-size 1 \
+  --max-duration 1000
+```
+
+and the following commands for decoding:
+
+```bash
+for method in greedy_search modified_beam_search fast_beam_search; do
+  ./zipformer/decode_char.py \
+    --epoch 24 \
+    --avg 5 \
