# whisper-tiny-int4-ov
* Model creator: [Openai](https://huggingface.co/openai)
 * Original model: [whisper-tiny](https://huggingface.co/openai/whisper-tiny)

## Description
This is [whisper-tiny](https://huggingface.co/openai/whisper-tiny) model converted to the [OpenVINO™ IR](https://docs.openvino.ai/2024/documentation/openvino-ir-format.html) (Intermediate Representation) format with weights compressed to INT4 by [NNCF](https://github.com/openvinotoolkit/nncf).

## Quantization Parameters

Weight compression was performed using `nncf.compress_weights` with the following parameters:

* mode: **int4_asym**
* ratio: **1**
* group_size: **128**

For more information on quantization, check the [OpenVINO model optimization guide](https://docs.openvino.ai/2024/openvino-workflow/model-optimization-guide/weight-compression.html).


## Compatibility

The provided OpenVINO™ IR model is compatible with:

* OpenVINO version 2024.4.0 and higher
* Optimum Intel 1.20.0 and higher

## Running Model Inference

1. Install packages required for using [Optimum Intel](https://huggingface.co/docs/optimum/intel/index) integration with the OpenVINO backend:

```
pip install optimum[openvino]
```

2. Run model inference:

```
from transformers import AutoTokenizer
from optimum.intel.openvino import OVModelForCausalLM

model_id = "OpenVINO/whisper-tiny-int4-ov"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
model = OVModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_id)

inputs = tokenizer("What is OpenVINO?", return_tensors="pt")

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_length=200)
text = tokenizer.batch_decode(outputs)[0]
print(text)
```

For more examples and possible optimizations, refer to the [OpenVINO Large Language Model Inference Guide](https://docs.openvino.ai/2024/learn-openvino/llm_inference_guide.html).

## Limitations

Check the original model card for [original model card](https://huggingface.co/openai/whisper-tiny) for limitations.
