# Whisper large-v3-turbo model for CTranslate2

This repository contains the conversion of [openai/whisper-large-v3-turbo](https://huggingface.co/openai/whisper-large-v3-turbo) 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/systran/faster-whisper).

## Conversion details

The original model was converted with the following command:

```sh
ct2-transformers-converter \
  --model openai/whisper-large-v3-turbo \
  --output_dir faster-whisper-large-v3-turbo \
  --copy_files tokenizer.json preprocessor_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).

## Inspiration

This model was inspired by SYSTRAN's conversion of other models, such as [`Systran/faster-whisper-large-v3`](https://huggingface.co/Systran/faster-whisper-large-v3).

## More information

**For more information about the original model, see its [model card](https://huggingface.co/openai/whisper-large-v3-turbo).**
