Shenava — Rizeh Pizeh v1.0 (6.9M) · Persian streaming ASR

Rizeh Pizeh (ریزه‌پیزه, “teeny‑tiny”) is the 6.9M smallest of the Shenava‑1 family — distilled down the cascade, built to run real‑time on a 2015 Cortex‑A7 (RTF ≈ 0.91 fp32, tract). fp32 NeMo source; formats below.

The Shenava‑1 family

A knowledge‑distillation cascade of on‑device Persian ASR models — one teacher distilled down to a 6.9M student. This model is one member; its siblings:

Benchmark — fair WER/CER

ITN + Persian‑digit normalizer (the double‑benchmark convention), decoded @ att_context_size=[70,13].
