 # Whisper Tiny Basque
 
-This model is a fine-tuned version of [openai/whisper-tiny](https://huggingface.co/openai/whisper-tiny) on the mozilla-foundation/common_voice_13_0 eu dataset.
-It achieves the following results on the evaluation set:
-- Loss: 0.6522
-- Wer: 32.2694
+## Model summary
+
+**Whisper Tiny Basque** is an automatic speech recognition (ASR) model for **Basque (eu)** speech. It is fine-tuned from [openai/whisper-tiny] on the **Basque portion of Mozilla Common Voice 13.0**, achieving a **Word Error Rate (WER) of 32.27%** on the Common Voice evaluation split.
+
+The model is designed for lightweight transcription of Basque speech, prioritizing low computational cost over transcription accuracy.

 ## Model description
 
-More information needed
+* **Architecture:** Transformer-based encoder–decoder (Whisper)
+* **Base model:** openai/whisper-tiny
+* **Language:** Basque (eu)
+* **Task:** Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR)
+* **Output:** Text transcription in Basque
+* **Decoding:** Autoregressive sequence-to-sequence decoding
+
+This model leverages Whisper’s multilingual pretraining and is further fine-tuned on Basque speech data to enable ASR for a low-resource language, using a compact model size suitable for constrained environments.
+
+---
+
+## Intended use
+
+### Primary use cases
+
+* Basque speech transcription in low-resource or experimental settings
+* Lightweight ASR pipelines with limited computational resources
+* Research on Basque ASR and low-resource speech recognition
+* Dataset exploration and preprocessing
+
+### Intended users
+
+* Researchers working on Basque or low-resource ASR
+* Developers experimenting with compact ASR models
+* Academic and educational use
 
-## Intended uses & limitations
+### Out-of-scope use
 
-More information needed
+* High-accuracy transcription requirements
+* Real-time or production-grade ASR without further optimization
+* Speech translation tasks
+* Safety-critical applications
+
+---
+
+## Limitations and known issues
+
+* Relatively **high WER** compared to larger Whisper variants
+* Performance may degrade significantly on:
+  * Noisy audio
+  * Conversational or spontaneous speech
+  * Accents underrepresented in Common Voice
+* As a tiny model, it may:
+  * Miss words
+  * Produce incomplete or inaccurate transcriptions
+* Dataset biases from Common Voice may be reflected in outputs
+
+Users are encouraged to evaluate the model on their own data before deployment.
+

 ## Training and evaluation data
 
-More information needed
+### Training data
+
+* **Dataset:** Mozilla Common Voice 13.0 (Basque subset)
+* **Data type:** Crowd-sourced, read speech
+* **Preprocessing:**
+  * Audio resampled to 16 kHz
+  * Text normalized using Whisper tokenizer
+  * Filtering of invalid samples
+
+### Evaluation data
+
+* **Dataset:** Mozilla Common Voice 13.0 (Basque evaluation split)
+* **Metric:** Word Error Rate (WER)
+
+---
+
+## Evaluation results
+
+| Metric     | Value      |
+| ---------- | ---------- |
+| WER (eval) | **32.27%** |
+
+These results reflect the expected performance of a tiny Whisper model fine-tuned for a low-resource language.
