OWSM: Open Whisper-style Speech Model

OWSM is an Open Whisper-style Speech Model from CMU WAVLab . It reproduces Whisper-style training using publicly available data and an open-source toolkit ESPnet .

Our demo is available here . The project page contains various resources.

OWSM v3 has 889M parameters and is trained on 180k hours of public speech data. It supports various speech-to-text tasks:

• Speech recognition
• Any-to-any-language speech translation
• Utterance-level alignment
• Long-form transcription
• Language identification

For more details and results, please check out our paper (Peng et al., ASRU 2023).
