omi-med-stt-v1-coreml

Omi Med STT v1 — CoreML

CoreML conversion of omi-health/omi-med-stt-v1, an English medical speech-to-text model for clinical dialogue built from NVIDIA Parakeet TDT 0.6B v2 (FastConformer + Token-and-Duration Transducer). Runs fully on-device on Apple Silicon (Neural Engine + CPU) via FluidAudio.

The component layout, I/O contract, tokenizer (1024 SentencePiece tokens, blank id 1024), and file names are identical to FluidInference/parakeet-tdt-0.6b-v2-coreml — only the weights differ (medical fine-tune). Any runtime that loads the stock v2 CoreML build can load this one from a local directory.

Files

Audio: 16 kHz mono, fixed 15-second window (shorter audio is padded by the runtime). Precision: FP16 MLProgram, minimum deployment target iOS 17 / macOS 14. Total size ≈ 1.1 GB.

Conversion provenance

• Source checkpoint: omimedstt-v1.nemo from omi-health/omi-med-stt-v1 (sha256 eaf0ff7258133b4e597aef024f81a4db1779abeb966e53f00a2250bb54e0fbf4).
• Exported with the FluidInference mobius parakeet-tdt-v2-0.6b/coreml pipeline (convert-parakeet.py --nemo-path …, NeMo 2.3.1, coremltools 9.0b1, PyTorch 2.7.0), then compiled with xcrun coremlcompiler and renamed to the FluidAudio v2 layout. The embedded model author field reads "Fluid Inference" because it is set by that conversion tooling; the conversion of this checkpoint was performed independently.
• Vocabulary exported from the checkpoint's SentencePiece tokenizer in FluidAudio's dict format.

Usage (FluidAudio / Swift)

Place all five artifacts in one directory and construct AsrModels directly (the stock download path would fetch generic v2 weights instead):

import CoreML
import FluidAudio

let dir = URL(fileURLWithPath: "/path/to/omi-med-stt-v1-coreml")
let ane = AsrModels.defaultConfiguration()          // CPU + Neural Engine
let cpu = MLModelConfiguration(); cpu.computeUnits = .cpuOnly

let models = AsrModels(
    encoder: try await MLModel.load(contentsOf: dir.appending(path: "Encoder.mlmodelc"), configuration: ane),
    preprocessor: try await MLModel.load(contentsOf: dir.appending(path: "Preprocessor.mlmodelc"), configuration: cpu),
    decoder: try await MLModel.load(contentsOf: dir.appending(path: "Decoder.mlmodelc"), configuration: ane),
    joint: try await MLModel.load(contentsOf: dir.appending(path: "JointDecision.mlmodelc"), configuration: ane),
    configuration: ane,
    vocabulary: vocabulary,   // parse parakeet_vocab.json: [Int: String]
    version: .v2
)
let manager = AsrManager(config: .default)
try await manager.loadModels(models)
let result = try await manager.transcribe(audioURL: fileURL)

In MacParakeet, select the "Omi Med STT v1" Parakeet build (Settings, or macparakeet-cli models select parakeet-omi-med-v1) — the app downloads this repository automatically on first use, or pre-fetch with macparakeet-cli models download parakeet-omi-med-v1.

Upstream model

Per the upstream model card: trained for clinical dialogue (GP consultations, medication reviews, procedure discussions); 8.30 % WER and 97.95 % medical recall on a 7.18-hour clinical benchmark. English only. It formats numerics clinically (e.g. "500 mg", "130 over 85"). See the upstream card for details and limitations.
