Model overview

whisper-diarization is a fast audio transcription model that combines the powerful Whisper Large v3 model with speaker diarization from the Pyannote audio library. This model provides accurate transcription with word-level timestamps and the ability to identify different speakers in the audio. Similar models like whisperx and voicecraft also offer advanced speech-to-text capabilities, but whisper-diarization stands out with its speed and ease of use.

Model inputs and outputs

whisper-diarization takes in audio data in various formats, including a direct file URL, a Base64 encoded audio file, or a local audio file path. Users can also provide a prompt containing relevant vocabulary to improve transcription accuracy. The model outputs a list of speaker segments with start and end times, the detected number of speakers, and the language of the spoken words.

Inputs

  • file_string: Base64 encoded audio file
  • file_url: Direct URL to an audio file
  • file: Local audio file path
  • prompt: Vocabulary to improve transcription accuracy
  • group_segments: Option to group short segments from the same speaker
  • num_speakers: Specify the number of speakers (leave empty to autodetect)
  • language: Language of the spoken words (leave empty to autodetect)
  • offset_seconds: Offset in seconds for chunked inputs

Outputs

  • segments: List of speaker segments with start/end times, average log probability, and word-level probabilities
  • num_speakers: Number of detected speakers
  • language: Detected language of the spoken words

Capabilities

whisper-diarization excels at fast and accurate audio transcription, even in noisy or multilingual environments. The model's ability to identify different speakers and provide word-level timestamps makes it a powerful tool for a variety of applications, from meeting recordings to podcast production.

What can I use it for?

whisper-diarization can be used in many industries and applications that require accurate speech-to-text conversion and speaker identification. Some potential use cases include:

  • Meeting and interview transcription: Quickly generate transcripts with speaker attribution for remote or in-person meetings, interviews, and conferences.
  • Podcast and audio production: Streamline the podcast production workflow by automatically generating transcripts and identifying different speakers.
  • Accessibility and subtitling: Provide accurate, time-stamped captions for videos and audio content to improve accessibility.
  • Market research and customer service: Analyze audio recordings of customer calls or focus groups to extract insights and improve product or service offerings.

Things to try

One interesting aspect of whisper-diarization is its ability to handle multiple speakers and provide word-level timestamps. This can be particularly useful for applications that require speaker segmentation, such as conversation analysis or audio captioning. You could experiment with the group_segments and num_speakers parameters to see how they affect the model's performance on different types of audio content.

Another area to explore is the use of the prompt parameter to improve transcription accuracy. By providing relevant vocabulary, acronyms, or proper names, you can potentially boost the model's performance on domain-specific content, such as technical jargon or industry-specific terminology.

The speaker-transcription model is a powerful AI system that combines speaker diarization and speech transcription capabilities. It was developed by Meronym, a creator on the Replicate platform. This model builds upon two main components: the pyannote.audio speaker diarization pipeline and OpenAI's whisper model for general-purpose English speech transcription. The speaker-transcription model outperforms similar models like whisper-diarization and whisperx by providing more accurate speaker segmentation and identification, as well as high-quality transcription. It can be particularly useful for tasks that require both speaker information and verbatim transcripts, such as interview analysis, podcast processing, or meeting recordings. Model inputs and outputs The speaker-transcription model takes an audio file as input and can optionally accept a prompt string to guide the transcription. The model outputs a JSON file containing the transcribed segments, with each segment associated with a speaker label and timestamps. Inputs Audio**: An audio file in a supported format, such as MP3, AAC, FLAC, OGG, OPUS, or WAV. Prompt (optional)**: A text prompt that can be used to provide additional context for the transcription. Outputs JSON file**: A JSON file with the following structure: segments: A list of transcribed segments, each with a speaker label, start and stop timestamps, and the segment transcript. speakers: Information about the detected speakers, including the total count, labels for each speaker, and embeddings (a vector representation of each speaker's voice). Capabilities The speaker-transcription model excels at accurately identifying and labeling different speakers within an audio recording, while also providing high-quality transcripts of the spoken content. This makes it a valuable tool for a variety of applications, such as interview analysis, podcast processing, or meeting recordings. What can I use it for? The speaker-transcription model can be used for data augmentation and segmentation tasks, where the speaker information and timestamps can be used to improve the accuracy and effectiveness of transcription and captioning models.

Things to try One interesting aspect of the speaker-transcription model is the ability to use a prompt to guide the transcription. By providing additional context about the topic or subject matter, you can potentially improve the accuracy and relevance of the transcripts. Try experimenting with different prompts to see how they affect the output. Another useful feature is the generation of speaker embeddings, which can be used for speaker recognition and identification tasks. Consider exploring ways to leverage these embeddings, such as building a speaker verification system or clustering speakers in large audio datasets.
