# Model Card for Model ID

This model is quantized using the [Quanto Python Package](https://github.com/huggingface/quanto) and the [CTranslate2 Python Package](https://github.com/OpenNMT/CTranslate2).
From my early tests:
- Much less GPU memory required
- It seems that performance is on par with the original
- It seems that this combination is faster than just using the CTranslate2 int8 quantization.

Quantization method TBA. 
To use this model, use the faster_whisper module as stated in [the original faster-whisper model](https://huggingface.co/Systran/faster-whisper-large-v3). 
Or use [WhisperX](https://github.com/m-bain/whisperX), this is what I used for my small tests (do not forget to set dtype to int8).

Any benchmark results are appreciated. I probably do not have time to do it myself.
