VibeVoice-ASR-Streaming-7B
AWQ 4-bit quantization
This repository is a Gaia-produced 4-bit AWQ quantization of
microsoft/VibeVoice-ASR-Streaming-7B.
The Qwen2 language-model decoder is quantized with AutoAWQ using 4-bit,
group-size 128, GEMM-compatible weights. The VibeVoice acoustic and semantic
tokenizers/connectors remain BF16 to preserve multimodal streaming ASR
behavior. The original model is a BF16 checkpoint reported as ~9B parameters
despite the repository's 7B name.
The model requires the VibeVoice vLLM plugin from Microsoft's
VibeVoice repository and a vLLM
build with AWQ support. The quantized decoder is in decoder-awq/; the root
configuration preserves the streaming architecture and points the plugin to it.
Quantization used 128 ASR/transcription-oriented calibration prompts. This is
weight-only quantization; speech-tokenizer weights were not quantized.
VibeVoice-ASR-Streaming is a unified streaming ASR model that transcribes Who (Speaker) said What (Content), with support for Customized Hotwords and 10 languages.
