Nemotron 3.5 ASR Streaming 0.6B — MLX 8-bit
This is Spoke's pinned distribution of the 8-bit MLX conversion of `nvidia/nemotron-3.5-asr-streaming-0.6b`. It is a 600M-parameter, cache-aware streaming FastConformer-RNNT ASR model with language-ID prompt conditioning, punctuation, and capitalization.
The model contains 8-bit quantized Linear and Embedding weights with group size
- Convolution and normalization layers remain in bfloat16.
Provenance
The files are mirrored from `mlx-community/nemotron-3.5-asr-streaming-0.6b-8bit` at revision 7279359e4481b5e9e185a318bd618e429c6d86cd. The MLX conversion was made by @ARahim3 with `mlx-audio`.
Use
from mlx_audio.stt import load
model = load("spokedotso/nemotron-3.5-asr-streaming-0.6b-8bit")
print(model.generate("speech.wav").text)The trained attention profiles are [56,3], [56,0], [56,6], and [56,13]. The [56,13] profile gives the lowest offline WER. Spoke uses the streaming profile selected by its local runtime.
