Whisper large-v3 turbo model for CTranslate2

This repository contains the conversion of openai/whisper-large-v3-turbo to the CTranslate2 model format.

This model can be used in CTranslate2 or projects based on CTranslate2 models such as faster-whisper. It is called automatically for Mobius Labs fork of faster-whisper.

Example

from faster_whisper import WhisperModel

model = WhisperModel("h2oai/faster-whisper-large-v3-turbo")

segments, info = model.transcribe("audio.mp3")
for segment in segments:
    print("[%.2fs -> %.2fs] %s" % (segment.start, segment.end, segment.text))

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.
