This model can be used in CTranslate2 or projects based on CTranslate2 such as [faster-whisper](https://github.com/systran/faster-whisper). ## Example ```python from faster_whisper import WhisperModel model = WhisperModel("medium") segments, info = model.transcribe("audio.mp3") for segment in segments: print("[%.2fs -> %.2fs] %s" % (segment.start, segment.end, segment.text)) ``` ## Conversion details The original model was converted with the following command: ``` ct2-transformers-converter --model openai/whisper-medium --output_dir faster-whisper-medium \ --copy_files tokenizer.json --quantization float16 ``` Note that the model weights are saved in FP16. This type can be changed when the model is loaded using the [`compute_type` option in CTranslate2](https://opennmt.net/CTranslate2/quantization.html). ## More information **For more information about the original model, see its [model card](https://huggingface.co/openai/whisper-medium).**
