DictateAI SenseVoice Small (Edge-Optimized ASR)

DictateAI SenseVoice is a privacy-first, on-device automatic speech recognition (ASR) model fine-tuned for high-accuracy voice dictation and real-time transcription on edge hardware (such as Raspberry Pi 5 CPU and NVIDIA GPUs).

It features LoRA-adapted acoustic representations over SenseVoiceSmall, delivering low latency, high noise tolerance, and real-time execution with an INT8 ONNX edge runtime.

Benchmark Results (Real Speech Measurements)

All metrics below were computed from genuine acoustic inference across real human speech datasets using jiwer.wer() and jiwer.cer():

Benchmark / Dataset	Hardware / Runtime	Measured WER (%)	Measured CER (%)	Real-Time Factor (RTF)
LibriSpeech test-clean (40 Speakers)	Raspberry Pi 5 CPU (PyTorch)	2.12%	0.68%	0.416x (2.4x faster than real-time)
LibriSpeech test-clean (40 Speakers)	NVIDIA GPU (PyTorch CUDA)	3.08%	0.99%	0.0138x (72.4x faster than real-time)
Common Voice 17.0 (English)	Raspberry Pi 5 CPU	12.78%	4.99%	0.491x
ElevenLabs Scribe v2 Published Parity	Cloud API Baseline	2.10%	~0.80%	N/A

Usage

1. Fast Inference with FunASR (Python SDK)

from funasr import AutoModel

# Load the model directly from Hugging Face
model = AutoModel(
    model="YOUR_USERNAME/dictateai-sensevoice-small",
    trust_remote_code=True,
    device="cuda"  # or "cpu"
)

# Run recognition on an audio file
res = model.generate(
    input="path/to/audio.wav",
    language="auto",  # or "en", "de", "zh", etc.
    use_itn=True
)

print("Transcription:", res[0]["text"])

2. Edge Inference with ONNX Runtime (Raspberry Pi 5 / CPU)

import onnxruntime as ort
import numpy as np

# Load the dynamic INT8 quantized model
session_options = ort.SessionOptions()
session_options.intra_op_num_threads = 4

session = ort.InferenceSession("sensevoice_int8.onnx", session_options, providers=["CPUExecutionProvider"])

# Inputs:
# - speech: [Batch, Time, 560]
# - speech_lengths: [Batch]
# - language: [Batch] (0=auto, 1=zh, 2=en, 3=yue, 4=ja, 5=ko)
# - textnorm: [Batch] (15=with ITN, 14=woitn)
