About
We introduce PhoWhisper in five versions for Vietnamese automatic speech recognition. PhoWhisper's robustness is achieved through fine-tuning the multilingual Whisper on an 844-hour dataset that encompasses diverse Vietnamese accents. Our experimental study demonstrates state-of-the-art performances of PhoWhisper on benchmark Vietnamese ASR datasets. Please cite our PhoWhisper paper when it is used to help produce published results or is incorporated into other software:

Using it via the API
Once AxForge deploys phowhisper-large for you, it answers on the OpenAI-compatible API — the same base URL and keys as every other model. (phowhisper-large below is illustrative; you get the exact model name on deployment.)
$ curl -sS https://api.axforge.ai/v1/audio/transcriptions \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $AXFORGE_API_KEY" \ -F model="phowhisper-large" -F file=@audio.mp3
