Ported from upstream commit [87bc526](https://huggingface.co/nvidia/canary-1b-v2/commit/87bc526), pinned 2026-05-08. Validated against the NeMo reference at transcribe.cpp commit [db53eda](https://github.com/handy-computer/transcribe.cpp/tree/db53eda) on 2026-05-08. Offline multilingual speech-to-text and translation across 25 European languages. A 978M-parameter multitask AED with a 32-layer FastConformer encoder and an 8-layer Transformer decoder. Supports automatic speech recognition for any of the 25 supported languages, plus translation between supported language pairs (per the upstream model card). Takes a 16 kHz mono WAV and produces a transcript. Not a streaming model; word and segment timestamps from the upstream model are not exposed in the v1 port. ## Downloads | Quantization | Download | Size | WER (LibriSpeech test-clean) | | --- | --- | ---: | ---: | | F32 | [canary-1b-v2-F32.gguf](https://huggingface.co/handy-computer/canary-1b-v2-gguf/resolve/main/canary-1b-v2-F32.gguf) | 3.7 GB | 1.92% | | F16 | [canary-1b-v2-F16.gguf](https://huggingface.co/handy-computer/canary-1b-v2-gguf/resolve/main/canary-1b-v2-F16.gguf) | 1.8 GB | 1.92% | | Q8_0 | [canary-1b-v2-Q8_0.gguf](https://huggingface.co/handy-computer/canary-1b-v2-gguf/resolve/main/canary-1b-v2-Q8_0.gguf) | 1.1 GB | 1.91% | | Q6_K | [canary-1b-v2-Q6_K.gguf](https://huggingface.co/handy-computer/canary-1b-v2-gguf/resolve/main/canary-1b-v2-Q6_K.gguf) | 889 MB | 1.94% | | Q5_K...
