## Usage
|
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
+
```python
|
| 38 |
+
from transformers import WhisperForConditionalGeneration, WhisperProcessor
|
| 39 |
+
processor = WhisperProcessor.from_pretrained("WindyWord/listen-windy-lite", subfolder="safetensors")
|
| 40 |
+
model = WhisperForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("WindyWord/listen-windy-lite", subfolder="safetensors")
|
| 41 |
+
```
|
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
+
For CPU inference via CTranslate2:
|
| 44 |
+
```python
|
| 45 |
+
import ctranslate2
|
| 46 |
+
# After downloading the ct2-int8 subfolder:
|
| 47 |
+
model = ctranslate2.models.Whisper("path/to/ct2-int8/")
|
| 48 |
+
```
|
