About Su-śrotā (सुश्रोता)
Su-śrotā is a Conformer-CTC speech recognition model originally trained by Prathosh AP's lab at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc). This web edition runs 100% client-side via WebML-Kit and ONNX Runtime WebAssembly with SIMD acceleration.
The 115M-parameter acoustic network is dynamically quantized to INT8 (~178 MB), and mel-filterbank feature extraction is executed in a dedicated ONNX preprocessor graph. Model weights are cached locally in your browser's Cache Storage for instant offline use.
Model weights are available at huggingface.co/gnumanth/sushrota-sanskrit-asr-onnx. Source code and export scripts are open source on GitHub.
