Whisper Small fine-tuned for Kannada ASR

This is a Whisper Small model fine-tuned for Kannada automatic speech recognition (ASR). The model was trained on a custom Kannada dataset.

Performance

  • Test WER: 29.63%
  • Test CER: 7.12%
  • Test WER WITH NORMALIZATION: 23.61%
  • Test CER WITH NORMALIZATION: 6.21%

Usage

from transformers import pipeline, WhisperForConditionalGeneration, WhisperTokenizer, WhisperFeatureExtractor

model = WhisperForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("loko99/whisper_small_kannada_v2")
tokenizer = WhisperTokenizer.from_pretrained("loko99/whisper_small_kannada_v2", language="kannada", task="transcribe")
feature_extractor = WhisperFeatureExtractor.from_pretrained("loko99/whisper_small_kannada_v2")

pipe = pipeline(
    "automatic-speech-recognition",
    model=model,
    tokenizer=tokenizer,
    feature_extractor=feature_extractor,
    chunk_length_s=30,
    device="cuda" # use "cpu" if you don't have a GPU
)

# Transcribe audio
result = pipe("path/to/audio.wav")
print(result["text"])
