# Whisper Medium Nordic

This model is a fine-tuned version of [openai/whisper-medium](https://huggingface.co/openai/whisper-medium) on the [mozilla-foundation/common_voice_11_0](https://huggingface.co/datasets/mozilla-foundation/common_voice_11_0) (sv-SE, da, nn-NO), the [babelbox/babelbox_voice](https://huggingface.co/datasets/babelbox/babelbox_voice) (Swedish radio), the [NbAiLab/NST](https://huggingface.co/datasets/NbAiLab/NST) (Norwegian radio), the [NbAiLab/NPSC](https://huggingface.co/datasets/NbAiLab/NPSC) (Norwegian parliament) and the [google/fleurs](https://huggingface.co/datasets/google/fleurs) (sv_se, da_dk, nb_no) datasets. The goal is to leverage transfer learning across Nordic languages, which have strong similarities.

It achieves the following results on the common voice Swedish test set:
- Loss: 0.2129
- Wer: 11.3079

## Training procedure

Please note that a bug during training prevented us from evaluating WER correctly.
Validation loss suggests we started overfitting after 5000/6000 steps.

### Training hyperparameters

The following hyperparameters were used during training:
- learning_rate: 3e-06
- train_batch_size: 32
- eval_batch_size: 16
- seed: 42
- optimizer: Adam with betas=(0.9,0.999) and epsilon=1e-08
- lr_scheduler_type: linear
- lr_scheduler_warmup_ratio: 0.1
- training_steps: 10000
- mixed_precision_training: Native AMP
