whisper-large-v3-te

Telugu ASR model fine-tuned from openai/whisper-large-v3 by Liodon AI.

Note: This is the epoch 1 checkpoint (training complete). Further training with additional data is in progress — this model will be updated with improved checkpoints as training continues.

Training Data

~119K Telugu audio samples from three datasets:

Usage

from transformers import WhisperForConditionalGeneration, WhisperProcessor
import torch

model = WhisperForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(
    "liodon-ai/whisper-large-v3-te",
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
)
processor = WhisperProcessor.from_pretrained(
    "liodon-ai/whisper-large-v3-te",
    language="Telugu",
    task="transcribe",
)

# Load your audio (must be 16kHz mono)
inputs = processor(audio_array, sampling_rate=16000, return_tensors="pt")
with torch.no_grad():
    predicted_ids = model.generate(inputs["input_features"])
transcription = processor.batch_decode(predicted_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)
print(transcription[0])
