Introduction of Ethio-ASR-multilingual-600M
Model Details of Ethio-ASR-multilingual-600M
Automatic Speech Recognition for Ethiopian Languages 🇪🇹
⚒️ Model Description
Ethio-ASR is suite of multilingual Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) models that support five Ethiopian languages: for Amharic, Tigrinya, Afaan Oromo, Sidama, and Wolaytta. This model instance is based on the pre-trained model wav2vec2‑bert-2.0 by fine-tuning it on the WAXAL Speech Dataset .
- Developed by: Ethio-ASR Team
- Task: Speech Recognition (ASR) and Language Identification (LID)
- Languages: Amharic, Tigrinya, Afaan Oromo, Sidama, and Wolaytta
- License: CC-BY-4.0
- Finetuned from: facebook/w2v-bert-2.0
🎧 Direct Use
from transformers import AutoModelForCTC, AutoProcessor
import torchaudio, torch
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("badrex/Ethio-ASR-multilingual-600M")
model = AutoModelForCTC.from_pretrained("badrex/Ethio-ASR-multilingual-600M")
audio, sr = torchaudio.load("audio.wav")
inputs = processor(audio.squeeze(), sampling_rate=sr, return_tensors="pt")
with torch.no_grad():
logits = model(**inputs).logits
pred_ids = torch.argmax(logits, dim=-1)
transcription = processor.batch_decode(pred_ids)[0]
print(transcription)
🔧 Downstream Use
- Voice assistants
- Accessibility tools
- Research baselines
🚫 Out‑of‑Scope Use
- Languages outside Amharic, Tigrinya, Afaan Oromo, Sidama, and Wolaytta.
- High‑stakes deployments without human review
- Noisy audio without speech enhancement
⚠️ Risks & Limitations
Performance might vary across dialects, genders, ages, and recording quality.
