VibeVoice-ASR-BitNet

Multilingual automatic speech recognition running entirely on CPU with microsoft/VibeVoice-ASR-BitNet: an I8_S quantized acoustic/semantic VAE speech tokenizer feeding a ternary (I2_S, ~1.58 bit) BitNet Qwen2.5-1.5B decoder β€” 1.58 GB of weights in total.

The model has no PyTorch/CUDA implementation; the only inference path is the authors' ggml-based VibeASR.cpp engine, so this Space clones and compiles asr_infer from source on startup and drives it as a subprocess. It runs entirely on CPU β€” CPU efficiency is the whole point of the paper.

Languages: English, Chinese, French, Italian, Korean, Portuguese, Vietnamese.

Example clips come from LibriSpeech (English) and FLEURS (French, Mandarin).
