Part of the soniqo.audio speech toolkit — an open, runtime-portable stack for speech AI. This bundle is the LiteRT export, designed to plug into the abstract interfaces in speech-core (C++ voice-agent orchestration library). Browse all LiteRT bundles in the soniqo LiteRT collection.

Use cases on soniqo.audio

On-device voice activity detection for Android. 16 kHz, 512-sample chunks with explicit LSTM state I/O so the caller owns state across frames.

Model

Property	Value
Architecture	STFT Conv1d + 4-layer Conv1d encoder + LSTMCell + 1×1 classifier
Parameters	~0.4 M
Format	LiteRT (TFLite)
Quantization	float32
Sample rate	16 000 Hz
Chunk size	512 samples (32 ms)
Context	64 samples prepended by caller each frame

Files

File	Size	Description
`silero-vad.tflite`	1.26 MB	Full model, FP32
`config.json`	1 KB	I/O signature

Signature

Inputs:
  audio        [1, 576]      float32   64 samples of context + 512 sample chunk
  state        [2, 1, 128]   float32   (h, c) stacked

Outputs:
  probability  [1, 1]        float32   voice probability [0, 1]
  state_out    [2, 1, 128]   float32   next-frame LSTM state

Parity

Re-implemented as a pure nn.Module loading weights directly from the upstream JIT checkpoint. Verified bit-exact output against the upstream Silero VAD JIT on random inputs (max diff = 0.0).

Usage

kotlin

val vad = Interpreter(loadModelFile("silero-vad.tflite"))

var state = FloatArray(2 * 1 * 128) // zeros on first call
var context = FloatArray(64)        // zeros on first call

fun classify(chunk512: FloatArray): Float {
    val audio = context + chunk512                 // 576 samples
    val inputs = mapOf(0 to audio.toDirectBuffer(), 1 to state.toDirectBuffer())
    val outputs = mapOf(0 to prob, 1 to nextState)
    vad.runSignature(inputs, outputs)
    context = chunk512.copyOfRange(448, 512)       // last 64 samples
    state = nextState
    return prob[0]
}
