- **Dynamic Batching**: Intelligent audio segmentation and parallel processing
- **Memory Pool**: Efficient GPU memory management and reuse

## Approach

![Approach](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openai/whisper/main/approach.png)

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.

## Quick Installation

Whisper Turbo supports Python 3.8-3.11 and recent PyTorch versions. For optimal performance, we recommend Python 3.9+ and PyTorch 2.0+.

### Standard Installation
```bash
pip install whisper-turbo
```

To update the package to the latest version of this repository, please run:

pip install --upgrade --no-deps --force-reinstall git+https://github.com/openai/whisper.git

It also requires the command-line tool [`ffmpeg`](https://ffmpeg.org/) to be installed on your system, which is available from most package managers:

```bash
# on Ubuntu or Debian
sudo apt update && sudo apt install ffmpeg

# on Arch Linux
sudo pacman -S ffmpeg

# on MacOS using Homebrew (https://brew.sh/)
brew install ffmpeg

# on Windows using Chocolatey (https://chocolatey.org/)
choco install ffmpeg

# on Windows using Scoop (https://scoop.sh/)
scoop install ffmpeg
```

You may need [`rust`](http://rust-lang.org) installed as well, in case [tiktoken](https://github.com/openai/tiktoken) does not provide a pre-built wheel for your platform. If you see installation errors during the `pip install` command above, please follow the [Getting started page](https://www.rust-lang.org/learn/get-started) to install Rust development environment. Additionally, you may need to configure the `PATH` environment variable, e.g. `export PATH="$HOME/.cargo/bin:$PATH"`. If the installation fails with `No module named 'setuptools_rust'`, you need to install `setuptools_rust`, e.g. by running:

```bash
pip install setuptools-rust
```

## Available models and languages

There are six model sizes, four with English-only versions, offering speed and accuracy tradeoffs.
Below are the names of the available models and their approximate memory requirements and inference speed relative to the large model.
The relative speeds below are measured by transcribing English speech on a A100, and the real-world speed may vary significantly depending on many factors including the language, the speaking speed, and the available hardware.

|  Size  | Parameters | English-only model | Multilingual model | Required VRAM | Relative speed |
|:------:|:----------:|:------------------:|:------------------:|:-------------:|:--------------:|
|  tiny  |    39 M    |     `tiny.en`      |       `tiny`       |     ~1 GB     |      ~10x      |
|  base  |    74 M    |     `base.en`      |       `base`       |     ~1 GB     |      ~7x       |
| small  |   244 M    |     `small.en`     |      `small`       |     ~2 GB     |      ~4x       |
| medium |   769 M    |    `medium.en`     |      `medium`      |     ~5 GB     |      ~2x       |
| large  |   1550 M   |        N/A         |      `large`       |    ~10 GB     |       1x       |
| turbo  |   809 M    |        N/A         |      `turbo`       |     ~6 GB     |      ~8x       |

The `.en` models for English-only applications tend to perform better, especially for the `tiny.en` and `base.en` models. We observed that the difference becomes less significant for the `small.en` and `medium.en` models.
Additionally, the `turbo` model is an optimized version of `large-v3` that offers faster transcription speed with a minimal degradation in accuracy.

Whisper's performance varies widely depending on the language. The figure below shows a performance breakdown of `large-v3` and `large-v2` models by language, using WERs (word error rates) or CER (character error rates, shown in *Italic*) evaluated on the Common Voice 15 and Fleurs datasets. Additional WER/CER metrics corresponding to the other models and datasets can be found in Appendix D.1, D.2, and D.4 of [the paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2212.04356), as well as the BLEU (Bilingual Evaluation Understudy) scores for translation in Appendix D.3.

## Command-line Usage

### Basic Usage
```bash
# Use optimized turbo model (recommended)
whisper-turbo audio.flac audio.mp3 audio.wav --model turbo

# Batch process multiple files with efficient parallel processing
whisper-turbo *.wav --model turbo --batch-size 8
```

### High-Performance Mode
```bash
# Enable all optimization options
whisper-turbo audio.mp3 --model turbo --optimize --fp16 --batch-size 16

# Streaming mode for long audio files
whisper-turbo long_audio.wav --model turbo --streaming --chunk-size 30
```

### Performance Profiling
```bash
# Enable performance analysis
whisper-turbo audio.wav --model turbo --profile --optimize
```

The default setting (which selects the `turbo` model) works well for transcribing English. However, **the `turbo` model is not trained for translation tasks**. If you need to **translate non-English speech into English**, use one of the **multilingual models** (`tiny`, `base`, `small`, `medium`, `large`) instead of `turbo`.

For example, to transcribe an audio file containing non-English speech, you can specify the language:

```bash
whisper japanese.wav --language Japanese
```

To **translate** speech into English, use:

```bash
whisper japanese.wav --model medium --language Japanese --task translate
```

> **Note:** The `turbo` model will return the original language even if `--task translate` is specified. Use `medium` or `large` for the best translation results.

Run the following to view all available options:

```bash
whisper --help
```

See [tokenizer.py](https://github.com/openai/whisper/blob/main/whisper/tokenizer.py) for the list of all available languages.

## Python API

### Basic Usage
```python
import whisper_turbo as whisper

# Load optimized model
model = whisper.load_turbo_model("turbo", optimize=True)
result = whisper.turbo_transcribe(model, "audio.mp3")
print(result["text"])
```

### High-Performance Batch Processing
```python
import whisper_turbo as whisper

model = whisper.load_turbo_model("turbo", optimize=True, fp16=True)

# Batch process multiple files
audio_files = ["audio1.mp3", "audio2.wav", "audio3.flac"]
results = whisper.turbo_transcribe(model, audio_files, batch_size=8)

for i, result in enumerate(results):
    print(f"File {audio_files[i]}: {result['text']}")
```

### Streaming Processing
```python
import whisper_turbo as whisper

model = whisper.load_turbo_model("turbo", optimize=True)

# Real-time audio stream processing
for chunk_result in model.transcribe_stream("long_audio.wav", chunk_size=30):
    print(f"Time {chunk_result['start']}-{chunk_result['end']}: {chunk_result['text']}")
```

### Advanced Optimization Options
```python
from whisper_turbo import load_turbo_model, TurboConfig, turbo_transcribe, profile

# Load model with all optimizations
config = TurboConfig(
    use_flash_attention=True,    # Enable Flash Attention
    use_kv_cache=True,          # Enable KV caching
    use_mixed_precision=True,    # Use FP16
    use_model_compile=True,     # Use torch.compile
    max_batch_size=16           # Batch processing
)

model = load_turbo_model("turbo", config=config)

# Performance monitoring
with profile() as prof:
    result = turbo_transcribe(model, "audio.mp3", optimize=True)
    
print(f"Processing time: {prof.total_time:.2f}s")
print(f"Real-time factor: {prof.rtf:.2f}x")
```

Internally, the `transcribe()` method reads the entire file and processes the audio with a sliding 30-second window, performing autoregressive sequence-to-sequence predictions on each window.

Below is an example usage of `whisper.detect_language()` and `whisper.decode()` which provide lower-level access to the model.

```python
import whisper

model = whisper.load_model("turbo")

# load audio and pad/trim it to fit 30 seconds
audio = whisper.load_audio("audio.mp3")
audio = whisper.pad_or_trim(audio)

# make log-Mel spectrogram and move to the same device as the model
mel = whisper.log_mel_spectrogram(audio, n_mels=model.dims.n_mels).to(model.device)

# detect the spoken language
_, probs = model.detect_language(mel)
print(f"Detected language: {max(probs, key=probs.get)}")

# decode the audio
options = whisper.DecodingOptions()
result = whisper.decode(model, mel, options)

# print the recognized text
print(result.text)
```
