# speecht5-asr-punctuation-sensitive
This model is part of SotoMedia's Automatic Video Dubbing project, aiming to build first open source video dubbing technolgy across a 
diverse range of languages. You can find more details about our project and our pibline [here](https://github.com/ElsebaiyMohamed/Modablag).

## Description:
The **speecht5-asr-punctuation-sensitive** model is an advanced Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) system designed to transcribe spoken English 
while maintaining a high level of awareness for punctuation. This model is trained to accurately recognize and preserve punctuation marks,
enhancing the fidelity of transcriptions in scenarios where punctuation is crucial for conveying meaning. 

- **Model type:** transformer encoder- decoder
- **Language:** En
- **Base model:** SpeechT5-ASR [checkpoint](https://huggingface.co/microsoft/speecht5_asr)
- **
Finetuning dataset:** [MuST-C-en_ar](https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/sebaeymohamed/must-c-en-ar) 

## Key Features:
**Punctuation Sensitivity:** The model is specifically engineered to be highly sensitive to punctuation nuances in spoken English, ensuring 
accurate representation of the speaker's intended meaning.
**New Vocabulary:** Change vocabulary to be on Piece-level rather than character-level with vocabulary size 500 piece.


## Usage

```py
# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("automatic-speech-recognition", model="seba3y/speecht5-asr-punctuation-sensitive")
```


```py
# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoProcessor, AutoModelForSpeechSeq2Seq

processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("seba3y/speecht5-asr-punctuation-sensitive")
model = AutoModelForSpeechSeq2Seq.from_pretrained("seba3y/speecht5-asr-punctuation-sensitive")
```

## Fintuning & Evaluation Details

### Dataset
MuST-C is a multilingual speech translation corpus whose size and quality will facilitate the training of end-to-end systems 
for SLT from English into several target languages. For each target language, MuST-C comprises several hundred hours of audio 
recordings from English TED Talks, which are automatically aligned at the sentence level with their manual transcriptions and translations.
