# Whisper Small Finetuned on Amma Juz of Quran |
|
|
|
This model is a fine-tuned version of [openai/whisper-small](https://huggingface.co/openai/whisper-small), specialized in transcribing Arabic audio with a focus on Quranic recitation from the *Amma Juz* dataset. This fine-tuning makes the model highly effective for tasks involving accurate recognition of Arabic speech, especially in religious and Quranic contexts. |
|
|
|
## Model Description |
|
|
|
Whisper Small is a transformer-based model for automatic speech recognition (ASR), developed by OpenAI. By fine-tuning it on the *Amma Juz* dataset, this version achieves state-of-the-art results on transcribing Quranic recitations with minimal word error rates and high accuracy. The fine-tuned model retains the original capabilities of the Whisper architecture while being optimized for Arabic Quranic text. |
|
|
|
## Performance Metrics |
|
|
|
On the evaluation set, the model achieved: |
|
- **Evaluation Loss**: 0.0058 |
|
- **Word Error Rate (WER)**: 1.1494% |
|
- **Evaluation Runtime**: 44.2766 seconds |
|
- **Evaluation Samples per Second**: 2.259 |
|
- **Evaluation Steps per Second**: 0.294 |
|
|
|
These metrics demonstrate the model's efficiency and accuracy when processing Quranic recitations. |
|
|
|
## Intended Uses & Limitations |
|
|
|
### Intended Uses |
|
- **Speech-to-text transcription** of Arabic Quranic recitation, specifically from the *Amma Juz*. |
|
- Research and educational purposes in the domain of Quranic studies. |
|
- Applications in tools for learning Quranic recitation. |
|
|
|
### Limitations |
|
- The model is fine-tuned on Quranic recitation and may not perform as well on non-Quranic Arabic speech or general Arabic conversations. |
|
- Noise in audio inputs, variations in recitation style, or heavy accents might affect accuracy. |
|
- It is recommended to use clean and high-quality audio for optimal performance. |
|
|
|
## Training and Evaluation Data |
