pa-large-v2 (CTranslate2)
A CTranslate2 conversion of DrishtiSharma/whisper-large-v2-punjabi for faster-whisper, as downloaded by LiveWhisper, a voice dictation app for Windows.
All credit for the model goes to its original authors. This repository only
changes the file format (float16 weights, plus tokenizer.json and
preprocessor_config.json that faster-whisper needs). The licence is the
original's: apache-2.0.
Better than large-v3, but still gets more than half of words wrong - trained on Common Voice's small Punjabi set. Large-v2 sized, allow ~6 GB of VRAM with the main model.
