# Whisper small model for CTranslate2 |
|
|
|
This repository contains the conversion of [ales/whisper-small-belarusian](https://huggingface.co/ales/whisper-small-belarusian) to the [CTranslate2](https://github.com/OpenNMT/CTranslate2) model format. |
|
|
|
This model can be used in CTranslate2 or projects based on CTranslate2 such as [faster-whisper](https://github.com/guillaumekln/faster-whisper). |
|
|
|
## Install faster-whisper |
|
```bash |
|
pip install git+https://github.com/guillaumekln/faster-whisper.git |
|
``` |
|
|
|
## Example |
|
|
|
```python |
|
from faster_whisper import WhisperModel |
|
|
|
model = WhisperModel("bl4dylion/faster-whisper-small-belarusian") |
|
|
|
segments, info = model.transcribe("audio.mp3") |
|
for segment in segments: |
|
print("[%.2fs -> %.2fs] %s" % (segment.start, segment.end, segment.text)) |
|
``` |
|
|
|
## Conversion details |
|
|
|
The original model was converted with the following command: |
|
|
|
``` |
|
ct2-transformers-converter --model ales/whisper-small-belarusian --output_dir faster-whisper-small-belarusian \ |
|
--copy_files tokenizer_config.json --quantization float16 |
|
``` |
|
|
|
Note that the model weights are saved in FP16. This type can be changed when the model is loaded using the [`compute_type` option in CTranslate2](https://opennmt.net/CTranslate2/quantization.html). |
|
|
|
