Choice of VAD

[dgoryeo]

Hi @MahmoudAshraf97 , was there any key reason that you seleced Nemo over other VAD options? I came to that question since WhisperX is already using pyannote, I thought there must be a reason for Nemo.

This project initially was a trial to merge whisper asr with a diarization tool, the best known two were nemo and pyannote, I didn't use pyannote because it didn't perform well with the data that we are using but this is not benchmarked, and since whisperX uses pyannote I felt that it's not necessary to add it here since this project will become a whisperX clone, so having nemo as an option is always good. I've been delaying comparing Nemo to pyannote for too long I think 😅
