MOSS-TTS-v1.5-GGUF

Self-contained GGUF packages of OpenMOSS-Team/MOSS-TTS-v1.5, for audio.cpp. Each file carries the 8B delay-pattern backbone, the MOSS-Audio-Tokenizer v1 codec (**both** encoder and decoder, because cloning needs the encoder), the tokenizer and the model spec — nothing else to download. q4_k is usable and clones as well as the others — but it is **not lossless on the words**. Across four takes of the same sentence at different seeds, one substituted an article ("the" for "this"); q8_0 was exact on all four. Two independent ASR models agree on that substitution, so it is the audio and not a transcription artifact. Four takes of one sentence is a small sample and the true rate is not pinned down by it. Treat q4_k as the option for when 9.3 GB versus 13.2 GB decides whether the model runs at all, and prefer q8_0 when it fits.

CrisperWhisper

**CrisperWhisper** is an advanced variant of OpenAI's Whisper, designed for fast, precise, and verbatim speech recognition with accurate (**crisp**) word-level timestamps. Unlike the original Whisper, which tends to omit disfluencies and follows more of a intended transcription style, CrisperWhisper aims to transcribe every spoken word exactly as it is, including fillers, pauses, stutters and false starts. Checkout our repo for more details: https://github.com/nyrahealth/CrisperWhisper CrisperWhisper significantly outperforms Whisper Large v3, especially on datasets that have a more verbatim transcription style in the ground truth, such as AMI and TED-LIUM. CrisperWhisper demonstrates superior performance segmentation performance. This performance gap is especially pronounced around disfluencies and pauses. The following table uses the metrics as defined in the paper. For this table we used a collar of 50ms. Heads for each Model were selected using the method described in the How section and the result attaining the highest F1 Score was choosen for each model using varying number of heads.

granite-4.0-1b-speech

**Model Summary:** Granite-4.0-1b-speech is a compact and efficient speech-language model, specifically designed for multilingual automatic speech recognition (ASR) and bidirectional automatic speech translation (AST). The model was trained on a collection of public corpora comprising of diverse datasets for ASR and AST as well as synthetic datasets tailored to support Japanese ASR, keyword-biased ASR and speech translation. Granite-4.0-1b-speech was trained by modality aligning granite-4.0-1b-base to speech on publicly available open source corpora containing audio inputs and text targets. Compared to granite-speech-3.3-2b and granite-speech-3.3-8b, this model has the following additional capabilities and improvements: * Supports multilingual speech inputs in English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese and Japanese, * Provides higher transcription accuracy for English ASR and faster inference through better encoder training and speculative decoding, * Has half the number of parameters of granite-speech-3.3-2b for running on resource-constrained devices, * Adds keyword list biasing capability for enhanced name and acronym recognition We evaluated granite-4.0-1b-speech alongside other speech-language models in the less than 8b parameter range as well as dedicated ASR and AST systems on standard benchmarks. The evaluation spanned multiple public benchmarks, with particular emphasis on English ASR tasks while also including multilingual ASR and AST for X-En and En-X translations.

MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize-HF

MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize 0.9B is an end-to-end audio understanding model for long-form multi-speaker transcription, diarization, timestamps, and acoustic event awareness. It supports transcription and diarization across **50+** languages, single-pass inference on audio recordings up to **90 minutes** long, and custom hotword prompting for domain-specific terms. Given an audio or video file, the model generates a compact speaker-aware transcript in one pass, including timestamps and anonymous speaker labels such as `[S01]`, `[S02]`, and beyond.

wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53-faroese-100h

**Paper:** ASR Language Resources for Faroese The "wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53-faroese-100h" is an acoustic model suitable for Automatic Speech Recognition in Faroese. It is the result of fine-tuning the model "facebook/wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53" 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.

LightOnOCR-3-1B

**Same architecture as LightOnOCR-2-1B, new capabilities.** LightOnOCR-3-1B keeps the architecture of **LightOn's** previous LightOnOCR-2 models, so switching requires no change, and adds the new grounding, image description and chart extraction features. LightOnOCR-3 is a new family of highly performant lightweight OCR models. Compared to the previous generation, they bring significant improvements in speed and transcription quality and introduce new visual understanding features: the models now output bounding box coordinates with labels for all visual elements of a document, short descriptions of images, and the numerical data of figures and charts. With these capabilities, they offer a ready-to-use, easier-to-maintain alternative to complex document understanding pipelines. The models come in three sizes. The 1B keeps the LightOnOCR-2-1B architecture, while the 0.8B and 4B adopt the Qwen3.5 vision-language architecture, which simplifies integration with existing tools and brings a significant speed-up. All models are released under the Apache 2.0 license for research and commercial use.

cohere-transcribe-arabic-07-2026-gguf

Ported from upstream commit 0a8193c, pinned 2026-07-07. Validated against the Transformers reference at transcribe.cpp commit d89ecb7 on 2026-07-07. Offline Arabic speech-to-text, including dialectal Arabic and Arabic-English code-switching, with English as a secondary language. An Arabic-focused adaptation of the Cohere Transcribe 03-2026 architecture: a Conformer encoder with a Transformer encoder-decoder head (cross-attention, tied token embedding). Takes a 16 kHz mono WAV and a language flag (`-l ar` or `-l en`) and produces a transcript. Decoding is autoregressive. WER on the full FLEURS ar split (428 utterances), batch size 8, timestamps none. Figures without a commit were published before provenance was recorded.

qwen3-asr-0.6b-GGUF

GGUF / ggml conversions of `Qwen/Qwen3-ASR-0.6B` for use with the `qwen3-asr-main` CLI from **CrispStrobe/CrispASR**. This is the **first speech-LLM** in the CrispASR family — every other model in the set uses a dedicated CTC / transducer / encoder-decoder. The Qwen3-ASR runtime ships with a persistent KV cache so per-token decode is O(1) in cache size, not O(N) full re-forwards. All quantisations produce the correct transcript on `samples/jfk.wav`: > And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country.
