In this video, we train a speech recognition model for the Teochew language, also known as Chaozhou Dialect (潮州话). Teochew, spoken by 10 million people in Southern China, is part of the Min Nan language family and is distantly related to Mandarin and Cantonese. We set up a data pipeline and fine-tune OpenAI's Whisper to understand Teochew, using transfer learning from Mandarin and Cantonese. Check out how we inspect the training using TensorBoard, evaluate model outputs with Streamlit and Gradio, and learn about the linguistics of Teochew.

The model is open source and available: [ Ссылка ]
