Introduce
Paraformer is an innovative non-autoregressive end-to-end speech recognition model that offers significant advantages over traditional autoregressive models. Unlike its counterparts, Paraformer can generate the target text for an entire sentence in parallel, making it ideal for parallel inference using GPUs. This capability leads to significant improvements in inference efficiency, which can reduce machine costs for speech recognition cloud services by almost 10 times. Furthermore, Paraformer can achieve the same performance as autoregressive models on industrial-scale data.
This repository demonstrates how to leverage Paraformer in conjunction with the funasr_onnx runtime. The underlying model is derived from FunASR, which was trained on a massive 60,000-hour Mandarin dataset. Notably, Paraformer's performance secured the top spot on the SpeechIO leaderboard, highlighting its exceptional capabilities in speech recognition.
We have relesed numerous industrial-grade models, including speech recognition, voice activity detection, punctuation restoration, speaker verification, speaker diarization, and timestamp prediction (force alignment). To learn more about these models, kindly refer to the documentation available on FunASR. If you are interested in leveraging advanced AI technology for your speech-related projects, we invite you to explore the possibilities offered by FunASR.
