kotoba-whisper-bilingual-v1.0

模型介绍

_Kotoba-Whisper-Bilingual_ is a collection of distilled Whisper models trained for - **Japanese ASR** - **English ASR** - **Speech-to-text translation (Japanese -> English)** - **Speech-to-text translation (English -> Japanese)** developed through the collaboration bewteen Asahi Ushio and Kotoba Technologies. Following the original work of distil-whisper (Robust Knowledge Distillation via Large-Scale Pseudo Labelling), we employ OpenAI's Whisper large-v3 as the teacher model for Japanese and English ASR, while we translate the transcription into English and Japanese by external LLM to obtain training dataset for speech-to-text translation. We employ ReazonSpeech for Japanese ASR and Japanese speech to English text translation, and Multilingual LibriSpeech for English ASR and English speech to Japanese text translation. Kotoba-whisper-bilingual's loss objective consists of cross-entropy on both of ASR and translation tasks, while KL divergence loss only for ASR task. The student model consists the full encoder of the teacher large-v3 model and the decoder with two layers initialized from the first and last layer of the large-v3 model. As kotoba-whisper uses the same architecture as distil-whisper/distil-large-v3, it inherits the benefit of the improved latency compared to openai/whisper-large-v3 (**6.3x faster than large-v3**, see the table below taken from distil-whisper/distil-large-v3).
