Qwen3-ASR-0.6B for Intel Core Ultra

Maintained by AtomGradient / 质子梯度（北京）科技有限公司.

Model artifacts used by AtomGradient ASR Runtime for local speech recognition on Intel hardware. The evaluated configuration uses Qwen3-ASR-0.6B with INT8 weight storage and floating-point components. INT8 does not describe every computation in the system.

Model and device specifications

AtomGradient ASR Runtime

AtomGradient ASR Runtime is the local speech-recognition runtime in the AtomGradient speech delivery package. It provides model execution, recognition-request handling, cancellation and dialogue integration, using these model artifacts and third-party inference libraries.

The runtime and the model artifacts are complementary delivery components. This repository distributes the model artifacts; AtomGradient supplies the runtime, installation package and customer deployment documentation separately. The base model and third-party inference libraries retain their respective attribution.

Observed performance

Public audio tests on the device above, 2026-09-11:

Each file was run twice. The table shows the second, warm observation, including audio preprocessing and excluding model loading. These are small-sample measurements, not latency percentiles or a general speed guarantee.

A separate AtomGradient ASR Runtime field test on 2026-09-12 completed 10 of 10 recognition requests, with median local request processing time 0.236 s and range 0.172–1.031 s. This included one wake-phrase verification and nine dialogue requests. Timing excludes the user's speaking time, audio upload and end-of-speech detection. Concurrent speech synthesis can increase recognition latency.

Scope and limitations

• The recorded tests establish that the model runs on the specified device. They do not establish recognition accuracy across arbitrary speakers, languages or environments.
• No held-out WER/CER benchmark or lossless-quantization claim is made. Transcriptions differed between precision variants on the longer English sample.
• The public audio tests and the field-test requests are different inputs with different timing boundaries; they must not be combined into one latency distribution.
• This repository contains model artifacts and associated configuration. AtomGradient ASR Runtime, the installation package and product integration are delivered separately. Model files alone are not the complete demonstrated assistant.
