 # Conclusion
 # ----------
 # 
 # We used an example raw audio signal, or waveform, to illustrate how to
-# open an audio file using torchaudio, and how to pre-process and
-# transform such waveform. Given that torchaudio is built on PyTorch,
+# open an audio file using ``torchaudio``, and how to pre-process,
+# transform, and apply functions to such waveform. We also demonstrated how
+# to use familiar Kaldi functions, as well as utilize built-in datasets to 
+# construct our models. Given that ``torchaudio`` is built on PyTorch,
 # these techniques can be used as building blocks for more advanced audio
 # applications, such as speech recognition, while leveraging GPUs.
