...The model enables accurate word- or phoneme-level timestamping using Connectionist Temporal Classification (CTC) emissions. Unlike other tools, it provides significant memory efficiency compared to the TorchAudio forced alignment API. Users can integrate it easily through the Python package ctc-forced-aligner, and it supports GPU acceleration via PyTorch. The alignment pipeline includes audio processing, emission generation, tokenization, and span detection, making it suitable for speech analysis, transcription syncing, and dataset creation. This model is especially useful for researchers and developers working with low-resource languages or building multilingual speech systems.
