## Model details
|
67 |
-
|
68 |
-
The Whisper models are trained for speech recognition and translation tasks, capable of transcribing speech audio into the text in the language it is spoken (ASR) as well as translated into English (speech translation). Researchers at OpenAI developed the models to study the robustness of speech processing systems trained under large-scale weak supervision. There are 9 models of different sizes and capabilities, summarised in the following table.

## Model description
|
81 |
-
|
82 |
-
Whisper is an auto-regressive automatic speech recognition encoder-decoder model that was trained on 680 000 hours of 16kHz sampled multilingual audio. It was fully trained in a supervised manner, with multiple tasks :
|
83 |
-
|
84 |
-
- English transcription
|
85 |
-
- Any-to-English speech translation
|
86 |
-
- Non-English transcription
|
87 |
-
- No speech prediction
|
88 |
-
|
89 |
-
To each task corresponds a sequence of tokens that are given to the decoder as *context tokens*. The beginning of a transcription always starts with `<|startoftranscript|>` which is why the `decoder_start_token` is always set to `tokenizer.encode("<|startoftranscript|>")`. The following token should be the language token, which is automatically detected in the original code. Finally, the task is define using either `<|transcribe|>` or `<|translate|>`. In addition, a `<|notimestamps|>` token is added if the task does not include timestamp prediction.

# Whisper
|
49 |
|
50 |
+
Whisper is a pre-trained model for automatic speech recognition (ASR) and speech translation. Trained on 680k hours
|
51 |
+
of labelled data, Whisper models demonstrate a strong ability to generalise to many datasets and domains **without** the need
|
52 |
+
for fine-tuning.
|
53 |
|
54 |
+
Whisper was proposed in the paper [Robust Speech Recognition via Large-Scale Weak Supervision](https://arxiv.org/abs/2212.04356)
|
55 |
+
by Alec Radford et al. from OpenAI. The original code repository can be found [here](https://github.com/openai/whisper).

## Model details
|
61 |
|
62 |
+
Whisper is a Transformer based encoder-decoder model, also referred to as a _sequence-to-sequence_ model.
|
63 |
+
It was trained on 680k hours of labelled speech data annotated using large-scale weak supervision.
|
64 |
|
65 |
+
The models were trained on either English-only data or multilingual data. The English-only models were trained
|
66 |
+
on the task of speech recognition. The multilingual models were trained on both speech recognition and speech
|
67 |
+
translation. For speech recognition, the model predicts transcriptions in the *same* language as the audio.
|
68 |
+
For speech translation, the model predicts transcriptions to a *different* language to the audio.
|
69 |
|
70 |
+
Whisper checkpoints come in five configurations of varying model sizes.
|
71 |
+
The smallest four are trained on either English-only or multilingual data.
|
72 |
+
The largest checkpoints are multilingual only. All ten of the pre-trained checkpoints
|
73 |
+
are available on the [Hugging Face Hub](https://huggingface.co/models?search=openai/whisper). The
|
74 |
+
checkpoints are summarised in the following table with links to the models on the Hub:

# Usage
|
86 |
|
87 |
+
This checkpoint is an *English-only* model, meaning it can be used for English speech recognition. Multilingual speech
|
88 |
+
recognition or speech translation is possible through use of a multilingual checkpoint.
|
89 |
|
90 |
+
To transcribe audio samples, the model has to be used alongside a [`WhisperProcessor`](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/model_doc/whisper#transformers.WhisperProcessor).
|
|
|
91 |
|
92 |
+
The `WhisperProcessor` is used to:
|
93 |
+
1. Pre-process the audio inputs (converting them to log-Mel spectrograms for the model)
|
94 |
+
2. Post-process the model outputs (converting them from tokens to text)
|
95 |
|
96 |

+
```
|

|
155 |
+
## Long-Form Transcription
|
156 |
+
|
157 |
+
The Whisper model is intrinsically designed to work on audio samples of up to 30s in duration. However, by using a chunking
|
158 |
+
algorithm, it can be used to transcribe audio samples of up to arbitrary length. This is possible through Transformers
|
159 |
+
[`pipeline`](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main_classes/pipelines#transformers.AutomaticSpeechRecognitionPipeline)
|
160 |
+
method. Chunking is enabled by setting `chunk_length_s=30` when instantiating the pipeline. It can also be extended to
|
161 |
+
predict utterance level timestamps by passing `return_timestamps=True`:
|
162 |
+
|
163 |
+
```python
|
164 |
+
>>> import torch
|
165 |
+
>>> from transformers import pipeline
|
166 |
+
>>> from datasets import load_dataset
|
167 |
+
|
168 |
+
>>> device = "cuda:0" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"
|
169 |
+
|
170 |
+
>>> pipe = pipeline(
|
171 |
+
>>> "automatic-speech-recognition",
|
172 |
+
>>> model="openai/whisper-small.en",
|
173 |
+
>>> chunk_length_s=30,
|
174 |
+
>>> device=device,
|
175 |
+
>>> )
|
176 |
+
|
177 |
+
>>> ds = load_dataset("hf-internal-testing/librispeech_asr_dummy", "clean", split="validation")
|
178 |
+
>>> sample = ds[0]["audio"]
|
179 |
+
|
180 |
+
>>> prediction = pipe(sample)["text"]
|
181 |
+
" Mr. Quilter is the apostle of the middle classes, and we are glad to welcome his gospel."
|
182 |
+
|
183 |
+
>>> # we can also return timestamps for the predictions
|
184 |
+
>>> prediction = pipe(sample, return_timestamps=True)["chunks"]
|
185 |
+
[{'text': ' Mr. Quilter is the apostle of the middle classes and we are glad to welcome his gospel.',
|
186 |
+
'timestamp': (0.0, 5.44)}]
|
187 |
+
```
|
188 |
+
|
189 |
+
## Fine-Tuning
|
190 |
+
|
191 |
+
The pre-trained Whisper model demonstrates a strong ability to generalise to different datasets and domains. However,
|
192 |
+
its predictive capabilities can be improved further for certain languages and tasks through *fine-tuning*. The blog
|
193 |
+
post [Fine-Tune Whisper with π€ Transformers](https://huggingface.co/blog/fine-tune-whisper) provides a step-by-step
|
194 |
+
guide to fine-tuning the Whisper model with as little as 5 hours of labelled data.
