# whisper tiny SpeechBrain

This repository provides all the necessary tools to perform automatic speech
recognition from an end-to-end whisper model within
SpeechBrain. For a better experience, we encourage you to learn more about
[SpeechBrain](https://speechbrain.github.io).

## Install SpeechBrain

First of all, please install tranformers and SpeechBrain with the following command:

```
pip install speechbrain transformers==4.28.0
```

Please notice that we encourage you to read our tutorials and learn more about
[SpeechBrain](https://speechbrain.github.io).

### Transcribing your own audio files (in Arabic)

```python

from speechbrain.pretrained import WhisperASR

asr_model = WhisperASR.from_hparams(source="chaanks/asr-whisper-tiny-sb", savedir="pretrained_models/asr-whisper-tiny-sb")
asr_model.transcribe_file("speechbrain/chaanks/asr-whisper-tiny-sb/example.wav")


```
### Inference on GPU
To perform inference on the GPU, add  `run_opts={"device":"cuda"}`  when calling the `from_hparams` method.

### Training
The model was trained with SpeechBrain.
To train it from scratch follow these steps:
1. Clone SpeechBrain:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/speechbrain/speechbrain/
```
2. Install it:
```bash
cd speechbrain
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .
```

3. Run Training:
```bash
cd recipes/CommonVoice/ASR/transformer/
python train_with_whisper.py hparams/train_ar_hf_whisper.yaml --data_folder=your_data_folder
```

You can find our training results (models, logs, etc) [here](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/10mYPYfj9NpDNAa0nO16Zd_K1bIEUOIpx?usp=share_link).

### Limitations
The SpeechBrain team does not provide any warranty on the performance achieved by this model when used on other datasets.
