ViWhisper-small

Introduction

• We release a new model for Vietnamese speech regconition task.
• We fine-tuned openai/whisper-small on our new dataset VietSpeech.

Training data

* We use a text-to-speech model to generate sentences containing words that do not appear in our dataset.

Usage

Inference

from transformers import WhisperProcessor, WhisperForConditionalGeneration
import librosa
# load model and processor
processor = WhisperProcessor.from_pretrained("NhutP/ViWhisper-small")
model = WhisperForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("NhutP/ViWhisper-small")

prefix_ids = model.generation_config.forced_decoder_ids
model.generation_config.input_ids = prefix_ids
model.generation_config.forced_decoder_ids = None

# load a sample
array, sampling_rate = librosa.load('path_to_audio', sr = 16000) # Load some audio sample
input_features = processor(array, sampling_rate=sampling_rate, return_tensors="pt").input_features 
# generate token ids
predicted_ids = model.generate(input_features)
# decode token ids to text
transcription = processor.batch_decode(predicted_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)

Use with pipeline

from transformers import pipeline
pipe = pipeline(
    "automatic-speech-recognition",
    model="NhutP/ViWhisper-small",
    max_new_tokens=128,
    chunk_length_s=30,
    return_timestamps=False,
    device= '...' # 'cpu' or 'cuda'
) 
output = pipe(path_to_audio_samplingrate_16000)['text']
