# MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize
|
| 23 |
+
|
| 24 |
+
MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize is an open-source **speech transcription and diarization model** from the OpenMOSS team. It performs unified modeling over long-form, multi-speaker audio, supporting **automatic speech recognition, speaker-aware transcription, speaker diarization, timestamp prediction, and compact transcript generation**.
|
| 25 |
+
|
| 26 |
+
Given an audio or video file, MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize generates a speaker-aware transcript in one pass, with segment timestamps and anonymous speaker labels such as `[S01]`, `[S02]`, and `[S03]`.

## Introduction
|
| 48 |
+
|
| 49 |
+
Long-form speech understanding requires more than plain transcription. For meetings, calls, podcasts, interviews, lectures, videos, and other real-world recordings, a useful transcript should identify **what was said**, **who said it**, and **when it was said**.
|
| 50 |
+
|
| 51 |
+
MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize is built to unify these capabilities within a single generative model.
|
| 52 |
+
|
| 53 |
+
* **Long-form ASR**: Transcribes long audio and video recordings into text.
|
| 54 |
+
* **Speaker-aware transcription**: Adds anonymous speaker labels to each speech segment.
|
| 55 |
+
* **Speaker diarization**: Produces "who spoke when" style output without a separate diarization pipeline.
|
| 56 |
+
* **Timestamp prediction**: Generates segment-level start and end timestamps.
|
| 57 |
+
* **Audio and video input**: Supports common audio files and video containers decoded through PyAV.
|
| 58 |
+
* **Promptable generation**: Allows users to customize the transcription instruction.
|
| 59 |
+
|
| 60 |
+
## Model Architecture
|
| 61 |
+
|
| 62 |
+
MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize follows a modular audio-language design comprising three components: an audio encoder, a modality adapter, and a causal language model. Raw audio is converted into log-mel features, encoded by a Whisper-style audio encoder, projected into the language model embedding space through an MLP adapter, and then consumed by a Qwen3-style causal decoder for auto-regressive text generation.
|
| 63 |
+
|
| 64 |
+
The model uses audio placeholder tokens in the text sequence. During the forward pass, projected audio representations replace the corresponding placeholder embeddings, allowing the language model to generate timestamped, speaker-aware transcripts conditioned on the input audio.
|
| 65 |
+
|
| 66 |
+
| Component | Specification |
|
| 67 |
+
| --- | --- |
|
| 68 |
+
| Text backbone | Qwen3-0.6B style causal decoder |
|
| 69 |
+
| Audio encoder | Whisper-Medium encoder configuration |
|
| 70 |
+
| Audio frontend | `WhisperFeatureExtractor`, 16 kHz, 80 mel bins, 30 s chunks |
|
| 71 |
+
| Audio-text adapter | 4x temporal merge + MLP adapter |
|
| 72 |
+
| Fusion method | Audio features replace `<|audio_pad|>` embeddings |
|
| 73 |
+

## Quickstart
|
| 103 |
+
|
| 104 |
+
### Environment Setup
|
| 105 |
+
|
| 106 |
+
We recommend Python 3.12 with a clean Conda environment. This repository uses custom Transformers model and processor code, so always load the model and processor with `trust_remote_code=True`.
|
| 107 |
+
|
| 108 |
+
```bash
|
| 109 |
+
git clone https://huggingface.co/OpenMOSS-Team/MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize
|
| 110 |
+
cd MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize
|
| 111 |
+
|
| 112 |
+
conda create -n moss-transcribe-diarize python=3.12 -y
|
| 113 |
+
conda activate moss-transcribe-diarize
|
| 114 |
+
|
| 115 |
+
conda install -c conda-forge "ffmpeg=7" -y
|
| 116 |
+
pip install --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu128 -e ".[torch-runtime]"
|
| 117 |
+
```
|
| 118 |
+
|
| 119 |
+
Optional: if your GPU supports FlashAttention 2, install the optional runtime with:
|
| 120 |
+
|
| 121 |
+
```bash
|
| 122 |
+
pip install --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu128 -e ".[torch-runtime,flash-attn]"
|
| 123 |
+
```
|
| 124 |
+
|
| 125 |
+
### Command Line Inference
|
| 126 |
+
|
| 127 |
+
Run greedy decoding:
|
| 128 |
+
|
| 129 |
+
```bash
|
| 130 |
+
python infer.py \
|
| 131 |
+
--model OpenMOSS-Team/MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize \
|
| 132 |
+
--audio /path/to/audio_or_video.mp4 \
|
| 133 |
+
--decoding greedy \
|
| 134 |
+
--max-new-tokens 2048
|
| 135 |
+
```
|
| 136 |
+
|
| 137 |
+
Run sampling decoding:
|
| 138 |
+
|
| 139 |
+
```bash
|
| 140 |
+
python infer.py \
|
| 141 |
+
--model OpenMOSS-Team/MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize \
|
| 142 |
+
--audio /path/to/audio_or_video.mp4 \
|
| 143 |
+
--decoding sample \
|
| 144 |
+
--temperature 0.7 \
|
| 145 |
+
--max-new-tokens 2048
|
| 146 |
+
```
|
| 147 |
+
|
| 148 |
+
Return JSON output:
|
| 149 |
+
|
| 150 |
+
```bash
|
| 151 |
+
python infer.py \
|
| 152 |
+
--model OpenMOSS-Team/MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize \
|
| 153 |
+
--audio /path/to/audio_or_video.mp4 \
|
| 154 |
+
--json
|
| 155 |
+
```
|
| 156 |
+
|
| 157 |
+
Audio files are loaded through the Transformers audio loader. Video containers such as MP4, MOV, and MKV are decoded with PyAV and resampled to mono 16 kHz before feature extraction.
|
| 158 |
+
|
| 159 |
+
### Python Usage
|
| 160 |
+
|
| 161 |
+
```python
|
| 162 |
+
import torch
|
| 163 |
+
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoProcessor
|
| 164 |
+
|
| 165 |
+
from moss_transcribe_diarize.inference_utils import (
|
| 166 |
+
build_transcription_messages,
|
| 167 |
+
generate_transcription,
|
| 168 |
+
resolve_device,
|
| 169 |
+
)
|
| 170 |
+
|
| 171 |
+
model_id = "OpenMOSS-Team/MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize"
|
| 172 |
+
audio_path = "/path/to/audio_or_video.mp4"
|
| 173 |
+
|
| 174 |
+
device = resolve_device("auto")
|
| 175 |
+
dtype = torch.bfloat16 if device.type == "cuda" else torch.float32
|
| 176 |
+
|
| 177 |
+
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
|
| 178 |
+
model_id,
|
| 179 |
+
trust_remote_code=True,
|
| 180 |
+
dtype="auto",
|
| 181 |
+
).to(dtype=dtype).to(device).eval()
|
| 182 |
+
|
| 183 |
+
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained(
|
| 184 |
+
model_id,
|
| 185 |
+
trust_remote_code=True,
|
| 186 |
+
fix_mistral_regex=True,
|
| 187 |
+
)
|
| 188 |
+
|
| 189 |
+
messages = build_transcription_messages(audio_path)
|
| 190 |
+
result = generate_transcription(
|
| 191 |
+
model,
|
| 192 |
+
processor,
|
| 193 |
+
messages,
|
| 194 |
+
max_new_tokens=2048,
|
| 195 |
+
do_sample=False,
|
| 196 |
+
device=device,
|
| 197 |
+
dtype=dtype,
|
| 198 |
+
)
|
| 199 |
+
|
| 200 |
+
print(result["text"])
|
| 201 |
+
```
|
| 202 |
+
|
| 203 |
+
The default prompt asks the model to output each speech segment with a start timestamp, a speaker label, transcript text, and an end timestamp. You can customize the instruction with:
|
| 204 |
+
|
| 205 |
+
```python
|
| 206 |
+
messages = build_transcription_messages(
|
| 207 |
+
audio_path,
|
| 208 |
+
prompt="Please transcribe the audio with timestamps and speaker labels.",
|
| 209 |
+
)
|
| 210 |
+
```
|
| 211 |
+
|
| 212 |
+
The same can be done from the command line with `--prompt`.
|
| 213 |
+
|
| 214 |
+
## Output Format
|
| 215 |
+
|
| 216 |
+
The canonical output format is:
|
| 217 |
+
|
| 218 |
+
```text
|
| 219 |
+
[start_time][Sxx]transcribed speech[end_time]
|
| 220 |
+
```
|
