NB-Whisper for WhisperKit (Core ML)

Core ML conversions of the National Library of Norway's NB-Whisper models, for on-device speech recognition with WhisperKit.

Folder	Source
NbAiLab_nb-whisper-base	NbAiLab/nb-whisper-base
NbAiLab_nb-whisper-small	NbAiLab/nb-whisper-small

Converted with whisperkittools (whisperkit-generate-model). The weights are unchanged apart from the Core ML conversion. Each folder also contains NB-Whisper's tokenizer.json, so WhisperKit does not need to download a tokenizer separately.

let folder = try await WhisperKit.download(variant: "nb-whisper-base", from: "<this repo>")
let kit = try await WhisperKit(WhisperKitConfig(modelFolder: folder.path))
