Transcription Speech-to-Text څه شی دی

Speech-to-text (ASR, automatic speech recognition) converts audio recordings into text automatically. Modern ASR models (Whisper, Google Cloud, AWS Transcribe) achieve >95% accuracy on clean audio and can handle multiple languages, accents, and dialects. Applications range from accessibility (captions for deaf users), content creation (podcast transcripts, video subtitles), to voice interfaces (Alexa, Siri). ASR combines audio signal processing, acoustic modeling, and language models to predict what words were spoken.

❓ ډېرې پوښتل شوې پوښتنې

What's the difference between Whisper, Google Speech-to-Text, and AWS Transcribe?
Whisper is open-source and free but slower. Google and AWS are cloud APIs, faster and more accurate for clean audio. Whisper is better for multiple languages and robustness to accents.
How accurate are modern ASR models?
On clean audio, >95% accuracy. On noisy audio (car, crowd), 70-85%. Accuracy varies by language and dialect. Fine-tuning on your data improves accuracy by 5-10%.
Can I use ASR for real-time transcription?
Yes, but with latency tradeoffs. Real-time ASR (streaming) has 1-5 second delay. Batch transcription (all at once) is more accurate but has longer total latency.
What about accents and non-native speakers?
Modern ASR handles accents reasonably well, but accuracy drops 10-20% for non-native speakers. Fine-tuning on accent data helps. Background noise hurts accuracy more than accents.
Can I handle multiple speakers?
Yes, via speaker diarization (identifying which speaker is speaking). Whisper doesn't do this natively; use Pyannote or external services. Google Cloud has speaker diarization built-in.
