* Package name : whisper.cpp
Version : 1.5.4
Upstream Author : Georgi Gerganov
* URL : https://github.com/ggerganov/whisper.cpp
* License : MIT
Programming Lang: C++
Description : Automatic speech recogniztion, port of OpenAI's Whisper
model in C/C++
High-performance inference of OpenAI's Whisper automatic speech
recognition (ASR) model:
* Plain C/C++ implementation without dependencies
* Apple Silicon first-class citizen - optimized via ARM NEON, Accelerate
framework, Metal and Core ML
* AVX intrinsics support for x86 architectures
* VSX intrinsics support for POWER architectures
* Mixed F16 / F32 precision
* 4-bit and 5-bit integer quantization support
* Zero memory allocations at runtime
* Support for CPU-only inference
* Efficient GPU support for NVIDIA
* Partial OpenCL GPU support via CLBlast
* OpenVINO Support
* C-style API
This package could be a good fit for maintainence by the Debian Deep
Learning Team. It might need to go into non-free, as it to work need a
machine learning model trained on unknown content and without any easy
way to be reproduced using non-proprietary data sets.
This is an alternative implementation to the one requested in
<URL: https://bugs.debian.org/1034091 >.
