Ported from upstream commit a7088d620f755dcdca575b63db184c3ad55b2865, pinned 2026-05-06. Validated against the FunASR reference at transcribe.cpp commit f094d28 on 2026-05-06.

Offline speech-to-text in Chinese, English, and Japanese, plus 7 Chinese dialects (Wu, Cantonese, Min, Hakka, Gan, Xiang, Jin) and 26 regional Mandarin accents. ~800M trainable parameters wrapping a frozen SenseVoiceEncoderSmall (50 SAN-M main blocks + 20 transformer blocks), a 2-layer audio adaptor (512 → 1024), and a bundled Qwen3-0.6B LLM (28 layers, 16/8 GQA, BF16) that produces the transcript autoregressively. Takes a 16 kHz mono WAV and emits text. Not a streaming model, no translation, no built-in long-form chunking, no timestamps. ITN (inverse text normalization) is supported by the model and exposed via the --itn CLI flag and transcribe_funasr_nano_params { use_itn } in the library API.

WER measured on the full LibriSpeech test-clean split (2620 utterances) with greedy LLM decoding via the bundled Qwen3-0.6B head. Publisher reports 1.76% on this split (model card "Open-Source Dataset Performance" table). Our FunASR 1.3.1 reference run scores 1.79% (95% CI [1.63%, 1.95%]), within bootstrap noise of the publisher's number. transcribe.cpp's BF16 port matches that baseline within -0.01 percentage-points. LibriSpeech is an English-only benchmark; Chinese (AISHELL-1, WenetSpeech) and Japanese (CommonVoice JA) are the recommended complementary checks.

Usage

Build transcribe.cpp from source:

bash

git clone git@github.com:handy-computer/transcribe.cpp.git
cd transcribe.cpp
cmake -B build && cmake --build build

Run on a 16 kHz mono WAV:

bash

build/bin/transcribe-cli \
  -m Fun-ASR-Nano-2512-Q8_0.gguf \
  input.wav

If your audio isn't already 16 kHz mono WAV, convert it first:

ffmpeg -i input.mp3 -ar 16000 -ac 1 output.wav
