# Whisper-small-vaani-kannada
This is a fine-tuned version of [OpenAI's Whisper-Small](https://huggingface.co/openai/whisper-small), trained on Kannada speech from multiple datasets.
# Usage
This can be used with the pipeline function from the Transformers module.
```python
import torch
from transformers import pipeline
audio = "path to the audio file to be transcribed"
device = "cuda:0" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"
modelTags="ARTPARK-IISc/whisper-small-vaani-kannada"
transcribe = pipeline(task="automatic-speech-recognition", model=modelTags, chunk_length_s=30, device=device)
transcribe.model.config.forced_decoder_ids = transcribe.tokenizer.get_decoder_prompt_ids(language="ka", task="transcribe")
print('Transcription: ', transcribe(audio)["text"])
```
# Training and Evaluation
The models has finetuned using folllowing dataset [Vaani](https://huggingface.co/datasets/ARTPARK-IISc/Vaani) , [Fleurs](https://huggingface.co/datasets/google/fleurs),[IndicTTS](https://huggingface.co/datasets/SPRINGLab/IndicTTS-Hindi)
The performance of the model was evaluated using multiple datasets, and the evaluation results are provided below.
