whisper.cpp
Port of OpenAI's Whisper model in C/C++
whisper.cpp is a lightweight, C/C++ reimplementation of OpenAI’s Whisper automatic speech recognition (ASR) model—designed for efficient, standalone transcription without external dependencies. The entire high-level implementation of the model is contained in whisper.h and whisper.cpp. The rest of the code is part of the ggml machine learning library. The command downloads the base.en model converted to custom ggml format and runs the inference on all .wav samples in the folder samples. whisper.cpp supports integer quantization of the Whisper ggml models. Quantized models require less memory and disk space and depending on the hardware can be processed more efficiently. -

Whisper
Robust Speech Recognition via Large-Scale Weak Supervision
OpenAI Whisper is a general-purpose speech recognition model. It is trained on a large dataset of diverse audio and is also a multitasking model that can perform multilingual speech recognition, speech translation, and language identification. A Transformer sequence-to-sequence model is trained on various speech processing tasks, including multilingual speech recognition, speech translation, spoken language identification, and voice activity detection. These tasks are jointly represented as a sequence of tokens to be predicted by the decoder, allowing a single model to replace many stages of a traditional speech-processing pipeline. The multitask training format uses a set of special tokens that serve as task specifiers or classification targets. -

Lip Reading
Cross Audio-Visual Recognition using 3D Architectures
The input pipeline must be prepared by the users. This code is aimed to provide the implementation for Coupled 3D Convolutional Neural Networks for audio-visual matching. Lip-reading can be a specific application for this work. Audio-visual recognition (AVR) has been considered as a solution for speech recognition tasks when the audio is corrupted, as well as a visual recognition method used for speaker verification in multi-speaker scenarios. The approach of AVR systems is to leverage the extracted information from one modality to improve the recognition ability of the other modality by complementing the missing information. The essential problem is to find the correspondence between the audio and visual streams, which is the goal of this work. We proposed the utilization of a coupled 3D Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture that can map both modalities into a representation space to evaluate the correspondence of audio-visual streams using the learned multimodal features. -

Omnilingual ASR
Omnilingual ASR Open-Source Multilingual SpeechRecognition
Omnilingual-ASR is a research codebase exploring automatic speech recognition that generalizes across a very large number of languages using shared modeling and training recipes. It focuses on leveraging self-supervised audio pretraining and scalable fine-tuning so low-resource languages can benefit from high-resource data. The project provides data preparation pipelines, training scripts, decoding utilities, and evaluation tools so researchers can reproduce results and extend to new language sets. It emphasizes modularity: acoustic modeling, language modeling, tokenization, and decoding are separable pieces you can swap or ablate. The repo is aimed at pushing practical multilingual ASR—robust to accents, code-switching, and domain shifts—rather than language-by-language systems. For practitioners, it’s a starting point to study transfer, zero-shot behavior, and trade-offs between model size, compute cost, and coverage. -

Tensor2Tensor
Library of deep learning models and datasets
Deep Learning (DL) has enabled the rapid advancement of many useful technologies, such as machine translation, speech recognition and object detection. In the research community, one can find code open-sourced by the authors to help in replicating their results and further advancing deep learning. However, most of these DL systems use unique setups that require significant engineering effort and may only work for a specific problem or architecture, making it hard to run new experiments and compare the results. Tensor2Tensor, or T2T for short, is a library of deep learning models and datasets designed to make deep learning more accessible and accelerate ML research. T2T was developed by researchers and engineers in the Google Brain team and a community of users. It is now deprecated, we keep it running and welcome bug-fixes, but encourage users to use the successor library Trax. -
