**Paper:** [ASR Language Resources for Faroese](https://aclanthology.org/2023.nodalida-1.4.pdf)

The "whisper-tiny-faroese-8k-steps-100h" is an acoustic model suitable for Automatic Speech Recognition in Faroese. It is the result of fine-tuning the model "openai/whisper-tiny" with 100 hours of Faroese data released by the Ravnur Project (https://maltokni.fo/en/) from the Faroe Islands.

The specific dataset used to create the model is called "Ravnursson Faroese Speech and Transcripts" and it is available at http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12537/276.

The fine-tuning process was perform during March (2023) in the servers of the Language and Voice Lab (https://lvl.ru.is/) at Reykjavík University (Iceland) by Carlos Daniel Hernández Mena.

# Evaluation
```python
import torch
from transformers import WhisperForConditionalGeneration, WhisperProcessor

#Load the processor and model.
MODEL_NAME="carlosdanielhernandezmena/whisper-tiny-faroese-8k-steps-100h"
processor = WhisperProcessor.from_pretrained(MODEL_NAME)
model = WhisperForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(MODEL_NAME).to("cuda")

#Load the dataset
from datasets import load_dataset, load_metric, Audio
ds=load_dataset("carlosdanielhernandezmena/ravnursson_asr",split='test')

#Downsample to 16kHz
ds = ds.cast_column("audio", Audio(sampling_rate=16_000))

#Process the dataset
def map_to_pred(batch):
	audio = batch["audio"]
	input_features = processor(audio["array"], sampling_rate=audio["sampling_rate"], return_tensors="pt").input_features
	batch["reference"] = processor.tokenizer._normalize(batch['normalized_text'])

	with torch.no_grad():
		predicted_ids = model.generate(input_features.to("cuda"))[0]
	
	transcription = processor.decode(predicted_ids)
	batch["prediction"] = processor.tokenizer._normalize(transcription)
	
	return batch
	
#Do the evaluation
result = ds.map(map_to_pred)

#Compute the overall WER now.
from evaluate import load

wer = load("wer")
WER=100 * wer.compute(references=result["reference"], predictions=result["prediction"])
print(WER)
```
**Test Result**: 61.9550858652576
