+
+## <span style="color:#466f00;">Description:</span>
+
+`parakeet-tdt-0.6b-v3` is a 600-million-parameter multilingual automatic speech recognition (ASR) model designed for high-throughput speech-to-text transcription. It extends the [parakeet-tdt-0.6b-v2](https://huggingface.co/nvidia/parakeet-tdt-0.6b-v2) model by expanding language support from English to 25 European languages. The model automatically detects the language of the audio and transcribes it without requiring additional prompting. It is part of a series of models that leverage the [Granary](https://huggingface.co/datasets/nvidia/Granary) [1, 2] multilingual corpus as their primary training dataset.

+
+**Note 2:** Performance differences may be partly attributed to Portuguese variant differences - our training data uses European Portuguese while most benchmarks use Brazilian Portuguese.

+
+## <span style="color:#466f00;">How to Use this Model:</span>
+
+To train, fine-tune or play with the model you will need to install [NVIDIA NeMo](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NeMo). We recommend you install it after you've installed latest PyTorch version.
+```bash
+pip install -U nemo_toolkit['asr']
+``` 
+The model is available for use in the NeMo toolkit [5], and can be used as a pre-trained checkpoint for inference or for fine-tuning on another dataset.
+
+You can also run Parakeet TDT with [Transformers](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers) 🤗 (more below).
+
+### 1) NeMo usage
+
+#### Automatically instantiate the model
+
+```python
+import nemo.collections.asr as nemo_asr
+asr_model = nemo_asr.models.ASRModel.from_pretrained(model_name="nvidia/parakeet-tdt-0.6b-v3")
+```
+
+#### Transcribing using Python
+First, let's get a sample
+```bash
+wget https://dldata-public.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/2086-149220-0033.wav
+```
+Then simply do:
+```python
+output = asr_model.transcribe(['2086-149220-0033.wav'])
+print(output[0].text)
+```
+
+#### Transcribing with timestamps
+
+To transcribe with timestamps:
+```python
+output = asr_model.transcribe(['2086-149220-0033.wav'], timestamps=True)
+# by default, timestamps are enabled for char, word and segment level
+word_timestamps = output[0].timestamp['word'] # word level timestamps for first sample
+segment_timestamps = output[0].timestamp['segment'] # segment level timestamps
+char_timestamps = output[0].timestamp['char'] # char level timestamps
+
+for stamp in segment_timestamps:
+    print(f"{stamp['start']}s - {stamp['end']}s : {stamp['segment']}")
+```
+
+#### Transcribing long-form audio
+
+```python
+#updating self-attention model of fast-conformer encoder
+#setting attention left and right context sizes to 256
+asr_model.change_attention_model(self_attention_model="rel_pos_local_attn", att_context_size=[256, 256])
+
+output = asr_model.transcribe(['2086-149220-0033.wav'])
+
+print(output[0].text)
+```
+
+#### Streaming with Parakeet models
+
+To use parakeet models in streaming mode use this [script](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NeMo/blob/main/examples/asr/asr_chunked_inference/rnnt/speech_to_text_streaming_infer_rnnt.py) as shown below:
+
+```bash
+python NeMo/main/examples/asr/asr_chunked_inference/rnnt/speech_to_text_streaming_infer_rnnt.py \
+    pretrained_name="nvidia/parakeet-tdt-0.6b-v3" \
+    model_path=null \
+    audio_dir="<optional path to folder of audio files>" \
+    dataset_manifest="<optional path to manifest>" \
+    output_filename="<optional output filename>" \
+    right_context_secs=2.0 \
+    chunk_secs=2 \
+    left_context_secs=10.0 \
+    batch_size=32 \
+    clean_groundtruth_text=False
+```
+
+NVIDIA NIM for v2 parakeet model is available at [https://build.nvidia.com/nvidia/parakeet-tdt-0_6b-v2](https://build.nvidia.com/nvidia/parakeet-tdt-0_6b-v2).
+
+
+### 2) [Transformers](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers) 🤗 usage 
+
+
+Until Parakeet TDT is part of an official Transformers release, you can use it by installing from source.

+
+- Initialized from a CTC multilingual checkpoint pretrained on the Granary dataset \[1] \[2].  
+- Trained for 150,000 steps on 128 A100 GPUs. 
+- Dataset corpora and languages were balanced using a temperature sampling value of 0.5.  
+- Stage 2 fine-tuning was performed for 5,000 steps on 4 A100 GPUs using approximately 7,500 hours of high-quality, human-transcribed data of NeMo ASR Set 3.0.
+
+Training was conducted using this [example script](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NeMo/blob/main/examples/asr/asr_transducer/speech_to_text_rnnt_bpe.py) and [TDT configuration](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NeMo/blob/main/examples/asr/conf/fastconformer/hybrid_transducer_ctc/fastconformer_hybrid_tdt_ctc_bpe.yaml).
+
+During the training, a unified SentencePiece Tokenizer \[6] with a vocabulary of **8,192 tokens** was used. The unified tokenizer was constructed from the training set transcripts using this [script](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NeMo/blob/main/scripts/tokenizers/process_asr_text_tokenizer.py) and was optimized across all 25 supported languages.
+
+### <span style="color:#466f00;">Training Dataset</span>

+
+- 10,000 hours from human-transcribed NeMo ASR Set 3.0, including:
+  - LibriSpeech (960 hours)
+  - Fisher Corpus
+  - National Speech Corpus Part 1 
+  - VCTK
+  - Europarl-ASR
+  - Multilingual LibriSpeech
+  - Mozilla Common Voice (v7.0)
