# Whisper-Tiny-En: Optimized for Mobile Deployment |
|
## Automatic speech recognition (ASR) model for English transcription as well as translation |
|
|
|
|
|
OpenAI’s Whisper ASR (Automatic Speech Recognition) model is a state-of-the-art system designed for transcribing spoken language into written text. It exhibits robust performance in realistic, noisy environments, making it highly reliable for real-world applications. Specifically, it excels in long-form transcription, capable of accurately transcribing audio clips up to 30 seconds long. Time to the first token is the encoder's latency, while time to each additional token is decoder's latency, where we assume a mean decoded length specified below. |
|
|
|
This model is an implementation of Whisper-Tiny-En found [here](https://github.com/openai/whisper/tree/main). |
|
|
|
|
|
This repository provides scripts to run Whisper-Tiny-En on Qualcomm® devices. |

## Installation |
|
|
|
This model can be installed as a Python package via pip. |
|
|
|
```bash |
|
pip install "qai-hub-models[whisper_tiny_en]" |
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Configure Qualcomm® AI Hub to run this model on a cloud-hosted device |
|
|
|
Sign-in to [Qualcomm® AI Hub](https://app.aihub.qualcomm.com/) with your |
|
Qualcomm® ID. Once signed in navigate to `Account -> Settings -> API Token`. |
|
|
|
With this API token, you can configure your client to run models on the cloud |
|
hosted devices. |
|
```bash |
|
qai-hub configure --api_token API_TOKEN |
|
``` |
|
Navigate to [docs](https://app.aihub.qualcomm.com/docs/) for more information. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Demo off target |
|
|
|
The package contains a simple end-to-end demo that downloads pre-trained |
|
weights and runs this model on a sample input. |
|
|
|
```bash |
|
python -m qai_hub_models.models.whisper_tiny_en.demo |
|
``` |
|
|
|
The above demo runs a reference implementation of pre-processing, model |
|
inference, and post processing. |
|
|
|
**NOTE**: If you want running in a Jupyter Notebook or Google Colab like |
|
environment, please add the following to your cell (instead of the above). |
|
``` |
|
%run -m qai_hub_models.models.whisper_tiny_en.demo |
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
### Run model on a cloud-hosted device |
|
|
|
In addition to the demo, you can also run the model on a cloud-hosted Qualcomm® |
|
device. This script does the following: |
|
* Performance check on-device on a cloud-hosted device |
|
* Downloads compiled assets that can be deployed on-device for Android. |
|
* Accuracy check between PyTorch and on-device outputs. |
|
|
|
```bash |
|
python -m qai_hub_models.models.whisper_tiny_en.export |
|
``` |
|
``` |

|
## How does this work? |
|
|
|
This [export script](https://aihub.qualcomm.com/models/whisper_tiny_en/qai_hub_models/models/Whisper-Tiny-En/export.py) |
|
leverages [Qualcomm® AI Hub](https://aihub.qualcomm.com/) to optimize, validate, and deploy this model |
|
on-device. Lets go through each step below in detail: |
|
|
|
Step 1: **Compile model for on-device deployment** |
|
|
|
To compile a PyTorch model for on-device deployment, we first trace the model |
|
in memory using the `jit.trace` and then call the `submit_compile_job` API. |
|
|
|
```python |
|
import torch |
|
|
|
import qai_hub as hub |
|
from qai_hub_models.models.whisper_tiny_en import Model |
|
|
|
# Load the model |
|
model = Model.from_pretrained() |
|
decoder_model = model.decoder |
|
encoder_model = model.encoder |
|
|
|
# Device |
|
device = hub.Device("Samsung Galaxy S23") |
|
|
|
# Trace model |
|
decoder_input_shape = decoder_model.get_input_spec() |
|
decoder_sample_inputs = decoder_model.sample_inputs() |
|
|
|
traced_decoder_model = torch.jit.trace(decoder_model, [torch.tensor(data[0]) for _, data in decoder_sample_inputs.items()]) |
|
|
|
# Compile model on a specific device |
|
decoder_compile_job = hub.submit_compile_job( |
|
model=traced_decoder_model , |
|
device=device, |
|
input_specs=decoder_model.get_input_spec(), |
|
) |
|
|
|
# Get target model to run on-device |
|
decoder_target_model = decoder_compile_job.get_target_model() |
|
# Trace model |
|
encoder_input_shape = encoder_model.get_input_spec() |
|
encoder_sample_inputs = encoder_model.sample_inputs() |
|
|
|
traced_encoder_model = torch.jit.trace(encoder_model, [torch.tensor(data[0]) for _, data in encoder_sample_inputs.items()]) |
|
|
|
# Compile model on a specific device |
|
encoder_compile_job = hub.submit_compile_job( |
|
model=traced_encoder_model , |
|
device=device, |
|
input_specs=encoder_model.get_input_spec(), |
|
) |
|
|
|
# Get target model to run on-device |
|
encoder_target_model = encoder_compile_job.get_target_model() |
|
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
Step 2: **Performance profiling on cloud-hosted device** |
|
|
|
After compiling models from step 1. Models can be profiled model on-device using the |
|
`target_model`. Note that this scripts runs the model on a device automatically |
|
provisioned in the cloud. Once the job is submitted, you can navigate to a |
|
provided job URL to view a variety of on-device performance metrics. |
|
```python |
|
decoder_profile_job = hub.submit_profile_job( |
|
model=decoder_target_model, |
|
device=device, |
|
) |
|
encoder_profile_job = hub.submit_profile_job( |
|
model=encoder_target_model, |
|
device=device, |
|
) |
|
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
Step 3: **Verify on-device accuracy** |
|
|
|
To verify the accuracy of the model on-device, you can run on-device inference |
|
on sample input data on the same cloud hosted device. |
|
```python |
|
decoder_input_data = decoder_model.sample_inputs() |
|
decoder_inference_job = hub.submit_inference_job( |
|
model=decoder_target_model, |
|
device=device, |
|
inputs=decoder_input_data, |
|
) |
|
decoder_inference_job.download_output_data() |
|
encoder_input_data = encoder_model.sample_inputs() |
|
encoder_inference_job = hub.submit_inference_job( |
|
model=encoder_target_model, |
|
device=device, |
|
inputs=encoder_input_data, |
|
) |
|
encoder_inference_job.download_output_data() |
|
|
|
``` |
|
With the output of the model, you can compute like PSNR, relative errors or |
|
spot check the output with expected output. |
|
|
|
**Note**: This on-device profiling and inference requires access to Qualcomm® |
|
AI Hub. [Sign up for access](https://myaccount.qualcomm.com/signup). |

## Deploying compiled model to Android |
|
|
|
|
|
The models can be deployed using multiple runtimes: |

|
tutorial](https://www.tensorflow.org/lite/android/quickstart) provides a |
|
guide to deploy the .tflite model in an Android application. |
|
|
|
|
|
- QNN (`.so` export ): This [sample |
|
app](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/topics/80-63442-50/sample_app.html) |
