Invalid options: mode={}, arch={}

Error message

Invalid options: mode={}, arch={}

What it means

Identical logic to the ppg2mel copy: get_subsample in models/ppg_extractor/nets_utils.py rejects unsupported (mode, arch) pairs, e.g. anything besides asr/{vggblstmp,vggblstmp2,vggbgru,vgggru,bgru,blstmp,blstm} and mdense/bgru.

Solutions

1. Match (mode, arch) to a supported combination, e.g. ('asr','vggblstmp')
2. Patch get_subsample to add a branch for your arch if genuinely needed

Example fix

# before
get_subsample('asr', 'transformer', 24)

# after
get_subsample('asr', 'vggblstmp', 24)

VALID = {('asr', a) for a in ['vggblstmp','vggblstmp2','vggbgru','vgggru','bgru','blstmp','blstm']} | {('mdense','bgru')}
assert (mode, arch) in VALID

When it happens

Trigger: Calling get_subsample with mode='asr' and an arch like 'conformer'/'transformer', or mode='mdense' with arch != 'bgru'.

Common situations: Adapting ESPnet2/conformer configs into this codebase; arch typo; wrong mode string.
