Parakeet TDT 0.6B v3 โ€” MLX

MLX safetensors conversion of nvidia/parakeet-tdt-0.6b-v3 for Apple Silicon.

Architecture

  • Encoder: Conformer (1024 hidden, pre-encoding convolutions + transformer layers)
  • Decoder: TDT Transducer (predictor LSTM + joint network, 5 duration classes: 0-4)
  • Vocabulary: 1025 tokens (SentencePiece)
  • Parameters: ~0.6B
  • Audio input: 16 kHz mono, 128 mel bins

Notes

  • Weights converted from NeMo PyTorch format to MLX safetensors
  • Convolution weights use MLX layout (OHWI for 2D, OKI for 1D) โ€” not directly compatible with PyTorch
  • CTC head, preprocessor, spec augmentation, and loss weights are excluded (inference only)
